our year in review
its a new dawn • its a new day • its a new life • & i'm feeling good
 
As we mark one year as a nonprofit, we want to take a moment to honor and celebrate the individuals and organizations who have placed stones along the way, building Women in Ranching into what it is today, and setting the foundation for what it will become. 
 
If you’re interested in reading more about how Women in Ranching came to be, head over to our story page.
 
Today, an increasingly robust and diverse community is participating in and collaborating with WIR, transforming the organization for the better. With the shared awareness that our board and leadership need to reflect the fullness of those caring for the land, Women in Ranching has embarked on yet another pivotal growth point. At our one-year mark as a new organization, we are intentionally choosing to expand our board— extend our table, and welcome the diverse voices that will guide WIR into the future. 
 
With gratitude, we thank the many individuals, ranches and organizations who have shown such generosity, care, and trust — you have all played an integral role in moving WIR forward. 
 
Together, we breathe air into Women in Ranching as an evolving community-centered organization. We can't wait to see what the future holds.

DOCUSERIES
WOMEN OF THE EARTH
Chiara Hollender was one of our speakers from last month's Kitchen Table Chat. She has recently created a short form documentary called Women of the Earth, a series capturing the resilient work of female land stewards across the United States. The subjects in this series represent a diverse group of women, who’s work continues to lead our world towards effective and reciprocal solutions to systematically change the way we approach climate healing.
