Female Farmer Project: The Podcast

Female Farmers can suffer from isolation, hard physical labor, numerous things that are out of their control like markets, weather and a global pandemic. For many women – there is also the invisible unpaid labor that often comes in the shape of domestic duties and mothering. In this conversation with psychotherapist, licensed clinical social worker, and farmer Alana DiPesa we tackle the shame and stigma around mental health for farmers and farmworkers. Alana shares resources, best practices, and her specific knowledge about mental health issues for those who work in agriculture.
