What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “Self-care in agriculture looks like any stimuli that makes you refocus on the love of your craft.”
How I might use this $100 self-care award: “Maybe be attending an agricultural conference, state fair or day trip to another farm operation for a tour.”
Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: “Having a self-sustaining system (i.e. automatic feeders or waterers) that allows for more free time.”
