FarmHer is a television series that celebrates the stories and experiences of women in agriculture, and showcases their vital contributions to the industry. The show premiered in 2016 on RFD-TV, hosted by Lara Spencer, a TV personality and producer, who brings her passion for agriculture and interest in promoting female empowerment to the series.

Each episode of FarmHer follows the day-to-day lives of women farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness owners across the United States, giving viewers a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs these women face in the industry. Through engaging visuals and compelling narratives, FarmHer highlights the hard work and determination that it takes to be successful in agriculture, regardless of gender.

One of the unique aspects of FarmHer is its focus on women who are often overlooked in agricultural media. Viewers see firsthand how these women are breaking down barriers and redefining what it means to be a farmer in America. The show features women who specialize in a variety of agricultural practices, from traditional crop farming to beekeeping, livestock management, and more.

One episode might take viewers to the rolling fields of Amish country in Ohio to meet a woman who raises cashmere goats for their wool, while another episode might showcase the efforts of a young woman in Louisiana who is reviving her family's sugarcane farm.

Despite the diversity of the women featured on the show, there is a common thread that binds them all together: their unwavering commitment to the land and the animals they care for. Whether they are up before dawn to milk cows, or working late into the night to ensure their crops are healthy, these women don't just work on the farm, they live and breathe it.

FarmHer is not only a show about agriculture, but also a platform for women to share their voices and stories. Many of the women featured on the show discuss the challenges they face as women in a male-dominated industry, or their struggles to balance their work and personal lives. Through their shared experiences, viewers gain a deeper understanding of the unique hardships and rewards that come with being a woman in agriculture.

In addition to highlighting the stories of women in agriculture, FarmHer also showcases the beauty of rural America. The show is filmed on location, capturing stunning footage of rolling farmland, sunsets over the prairie, and other picturesque scenes that remind viewers of the peaceful and rewarding aspects of agricultural life.

Host Lara Spencer brings her wide-ranging knowledge of agriculture to the show, and engages the women she interviews with thoughtful questions and kind humor. Her experience as a producer and on-air personality makes her uniquely suited to telling the stories of the women farmers and ranchers who often go unnoticed by mainstream media.

Overall, FarmHer is a heartwarming and inspiring series that celebrates the diversity and resilience of women in agriculture. Whether you are a farmer yourself or simply someone who appreciates good storytelling, this show is sure to leave you feeling inspired by the incredible women who are making a difference in America's heartland.
