Women landowners, farmers, and conservation-minded community members are invited to participate in a three-part Women’s Learning Circle series designed to provide practical information, resources, and connections for managing farmland and working lands.
Hosted by The Nature Conservancy’s Women4theLand program in partnership with the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District and local conservation partners, the series will bring together women landowners and female conservation professionals in a welcoming, informal setting focused on learning, discussion, and peer networking.
The sessions will be held at the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District office in Noblesville and will explore key topics affecting agricultural land stewardship and long-term conservation planning.
The 2026 series includes:
- Soil Health and Water Quality – June 17
- Conservation Values and Challenges – July 15
- Steps for Creating a Plan + Visit to a Local Farm – Aug. 12
Each session will run from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and includes a light breakfast and complimentary lunch.
While each learning circle can be attended independently, the sessions are designed to build upon one another and provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of conservation opportunities, challenges, and planning strategies for their land. The information presented is relevant to all types of farming operations and landownership situations.
“Women own or co-own a significant portion of Indiana’s agricultural land, yet many have had limited opportunities to connect with conservation professionals and other women facing similar land management decisions,” said Heather Bacher, Women4TheLand coordinator. “These learning circles create a supportive environment where participants can ask questions, share experiences, and gain practical knowledge to help them achieve their conservation goals.”
Participants must register separately for each session. Registration and additional information are available at women4theland.org/upcoming-events. Assistance with registration is available by contacting Heather at heather@women4theland.org or (317) 514-4634.
