Annie spent her lifetime learning how to be an involved business partner with her farm husband. Together they did great things, but it wasn\u2019t easy. This is Annie\u2019s project \u2013 to take her life\u2019s experiences and share it with farm women living and working in a complex, dynamic, evolving business environment. Additional information on Annie\u2019s Project can be found at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.extension.iastate.edu\/Annie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.extension.iastate.edu\/Annie\/<\/a><br \/>\nAnnie\u2019s Project is designed to empower farm women to manage information systems used in critical decision making processes and to build local networks throughout the state. The target audience is farm women with a passion for business and involvement.<br \/>\nFarm women will receive training for managing information in the areas of: (1) Financial Records, (2) Production Records, (3) Marketing Plans and Risk Management, (4) Legal\/Regulation Records and Documentation, and, (5) Human Resources and Time Management. A group of hand selected speakers have been recruited as presenters for each of these sessions.<br \/>\nLast year 30 women from central Michigan attended Annie\u2019s Project. This is what one participant had to say, &#8220;Best class yet!
