The recent Rooted in Resilience Women’s Retreat provided an uplifting weekend of connection, self-care and empowerment for like-minded women.

Attendees of the Farm Bureau sponsored event embraced opportunities to focus on their well-being through various enriching activities. According to the agency, activities include:

• Cookie decorating with Two Girls and a Cookie Cutter kicked off the retreat, blending creativity and fun to foster camaraderie.
