Virtual Retreat for Women Farmers on Body Mechanics

Winter is the perfect opportunity before the busy season starts to step back, reflect and learn how to better care for our physical and mental health. Renewing the Countryside and the University of Vermont are excited to offer one more session of this unique, virtual series for woman-identifying farmers to connect and learn together on key elements of body mechanics. 

Led by and for women farmers, these sessions serve up a combination of practical information, movement and connection with other women sharing similar experiences. 

Jan. 21, 22 & 23 (12:00 - 1:30 pm EST; 90 minutes each day).

Registration (free) and more information here.

Space is limited to keep the groups small and conversational.

The Retreat takes a proactive and positive approach to aging:  We’re all on the journey of getting older, whatever age we may be at now.

Let’s celebrate the bodies and abilities we have and learn together how to best care for ourselves to keep our hands in the soil for as long as we choose.

A variety of topics will be covered including:

Building flexibility & strength

Understanding muscles and joints

Preventing injury

Dealing with chronic pain

Cultivating rest


Any questions please let me know!
