Province Celebrates Rural Women

Released on March 2, 2015

The Government of Saskatchewan has proclaimed the month of March as Rural Women’s Month.

“Women play an important role in agriculture and Saskatchewan’s rural communities,” Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart said.  “They are business owners, farm and ranch operators and leaders, and they have been key players in the agriculture industry’s growth.  I commend the work they do in their communities, in their businesses and for the province.”

Each year, women’s groups across Saskatchewan recognize Rural Women’s Month as a way of celebrating the accomplishments of rural women across the province.  The recognition extends to women of all ages, backgrounds and professions.

“Rural Women’s Month is an opportunity to recognize the leadership roles that rural women play in their family agricultural operations and as entrepreneurs and business owners,” Social Services Minister and Minister responsible for the Status of Women Donna Harpauer said.  “Their leadership in promoting partnerships and connecting communities to the consumer is keeping our rural areas viable, while ensuring a sustainable economic future for our young leaders of tomorrow.”
