​HELP TEACH WOMEN TO FARM

Hi! I'm Amy Fiedler, owner of Springhouse Farm here in Watauga County, NC. Over the years I have achieved many accomplishments that include winning Beekeeper of the Year and Female Farmer of the Year awards.

As a single mother, my greatest accomplishment has been raising both of my children on this land, instilling in them the importance of hard work and perseverance. Both farming and beekeeping have traditionally been male-dominated careers, and as a woman I have succeeded in both. 

​I am asking for your help to support me in creating and implementing a curriculum to teach other women how to farm; not only to grow food, but also how to succeed as business women. Your generous donation will enable me to continue this important work. I am requesting your sponsorship in order to offer this service to my community.
