For FarmHers,
By FarmHers
Helen’s Daughters is focused on building the individual and collective capacity of women farmers in the Caribbean region so that they can exercise their economic rights. Several countries in the region, consist of rural communities, yet most organizations that focus on women, girls and/or trans are urban centric. With marked social-class distinctions between rural and urban communities, we make it a point to focus on these under-served areas.
From agricultural training programmes to pro-bono health services in rural communities and even a farm-to-table cooking show; our organization takes a holistic approach to creating opportunities for women in the agricultural sector, combatting our regional food-import bill and tackling non-communicable diseases, while also ending cycles of poverty that exist in these rural communities.
We’re not just an agricultural organization- we use agriculture as an entry-point to overall development!

As hurricanes become stronger and more frequent and droughts become more devastating to agriculture, we must come to terms with this reality. But what can we do? 💬
At Caribbean Week of Agriculture, we discussed pathways toward resilience in the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl and introduced attendees to the true story of FarmHer Annie Bobb who survived the hurricane on Mayreau 🇻🇨. As her home and main place of work were destroyed, she is forced to live on the mainland and can’t enjoy the simple pleasures of home.
We do the work that we do for women like Annie. Watch her full story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84kjlks1vFo&t=74s

Our panel on Recovery and Resilience in the wake of Hurricane Beryl opened the door for a vulnerable, raw, and honest discussion on the successes and shortcomings of disaster preparedness and response in the Caribbean. A packed room listened as our FarmHers recounted surviving Hurricane Beryl and finding the mental fortitude to chart the way forward with HD’s support. 👩🏽🌾💚
We were pleased with the level of audience participation, including wonderful suggestions from our FarmHers, and a promise by SVG’s Agriculture Minister Saboto Caesar to grant women farmers a literal seat at the table at a CWA ministerial meeting. ✨
🎥 Then, we watched the fruits of our creative team’s labour: the premiere of Roots of Resilience: Stories of Caribbean Women in Agriculture! It’s been met with stellar reviews and we can’t wait for you to see it too.
CWA isn’t done. Our FarmHers will be at the tradeshow at the Kingstown Cruise Ship Port all week. Support your local FarmHer! 👩🏽🌾
