Farmers represent less than 2% of the US population. Women farmers represent 35% of that 2%. That’s quite a small number of women farmers in the US. Shelby Watson-Hampton grew up on a farm in Maryland. She describes the family farm as” a living, breathing entity of its own - the touchstone - the gathering place, the solid center of home for many”. She later helped her family transition the land from a nursery to a vineyard and thriving agritourism business. Shelby’s book, "Grace, Grit & Lipstick", was written for other women in farming, as a way to create the connections that we all need and desire.
Shelby says it like it is. Through her book and our interview, I found Shelby to be extremely authentic and transparent in her messages. She is a smart, practical business woman who provides tremendous guidance for farm businesses looking to expand into agritourism or aspiring farmers looking to make that leap of faith into owning their own farm business. Her primary message was to NOT go it alone. Keep connecting. And to quote Shelby from her book: ” On our best days we find our joy. On our worst days we rage, mourn, and fall to our knees. Then we get up, dust our knees and we get on gettin on.” Enjoy my conversation with Author and Entrepreneur, Shelby Watson-Hampton.
