Jen Greenly is a hired hand on a poultry cash crop farm in Norham outside of Warkworth.
Greenly says since she started her career in farming she has seen more women enter the agriculture sector
Greenly says part of being successful in agriculture is handling the hard labour.
Greenly tells us she’s come a long way since her pre-teen years in the fields of her family’s farm.
If farming is in your blood and you’re a woman, Greenly says don’t ever let anyone dissuade you from your passion.
From breeding and raising her own beef heifer, earning a diploma at agriculture college and being promoted to farm manager, Jen Greenly is our Kubota Woman Farmer of the Year.
