FarmHer: South Dakota
Since the first seed was planted along banks of the Missouri River, women have played a vital role in agriculture. However, their contributions to agriculture have been under-documented. Even today, the United States has close to a million female farmers and yet, women are still generally not considered “farmers” in the public’s eye, nor are they represented in the image of agriculture. This exhibit showcases 14 South Dakota women farmers and ranchers.
