The Agricultural Woman of the Year award seeks to honor unique leadership qualities held by women working within the agricultural industry in Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito Counties. The winner of this prestigious award will demonstrate a significant contribution to agriculture, be a leader for our community and be a true “Ag-Vocate” for agriculture. Ag Against Hunger, a program of the Grower-Shipper Association Foundation, will honor this individual at our annual Agricultural Woman of the Year Recognition Luncheon.
