A two day event celebrating Women in Farming begins today in Saskatoon.

Connect – The Heart of the Farm focuses on agriculture, awareness, appreciation and support for women in farming.

One of the Connect Co-founders is Lacey Gerbrandt.

"We've mixed a lot of very talented, very educational speakers - very motivational. We've got a fashion show, a trade show for some Christmas shopping and things like that. We're having alive cooking demo- just a whole lot of fun elements. Because really what we're trying to do here is celebrate farm women and just say thank you for everything that you do and that we appreciate you," Gerbrandt said.

Presenters include Ministry of Agriculture Shelley Jones,  Elaine Froese Canada’s Farm Whisperer, Tamara McLellan from Fine Line Solution and from the HGTV show the Property Brothers – the Scott Brothers.
