Birds of a Feather | Women in Agriculture Workshop & Lunch

A day just for birds.

Country hospitality, good food, a little creativity and conversations that matter, with a chance to discover something about yourself along the way.

Join country women from across Central West NSW at The Old Errowanbang Wool Shed for a day to look after yourself, learn practical skills and connect with other women who understand rural life.

Come with your country girlfriends or come on your own. There’s a place for you in our flock.

Look after yourself and each other

Led by Lifeline Central West CEO Stephanie Robinson, the day includes two short workshops:

• Wellness and resilience: explore the pressures of rural life and practical ways to support your wellbeing.

• Tailored Accidental Counsellor skills: learn how to recognise when someone is struggling, listen, respond supportively and connect them with help, while looking after your own boundaries.

Discover your bird

Explore your personality and discover what makes you tick, how others approach the world and how understanding our differences can help us communicate and build relationships.

Make something beautiful

Slow down and create your own nest brooch using gorgeous feathers and natural materials. Enjoy some hands-on creativity, with all materials supplied.

Find your flock

Share a two-course lunch, swap stories and meet women who get it. There’ll be time throughout the day to connect, share experiences and explore how we can better look after ourselves and each other.

Keep the connection going

The day is the beginning of an opportunity to stay connected. You’ll be invited to join a Facebook group, hear about follow-up workshops including Boundaries Before Burnout, and take part in scheduled activities to help paired-up “birds” maintain their connection.

Your ticket includes:

• Two 90-minute workshops covering wellness and resilience, and tailored Accidental Counsellor skills

• Birds personality profiling

• Nest brooch activity and materials

• A two-course lunch

• Afternoon tea with slices, tea and coffee

• Opportunities for ongoing connection and follow-up activities

Other drinks are available for purchase at the venue. Please let us know your dietary requirements when booking.
