GROUPS & CLUBS RURAL WOMEN
Rural Women New Zealand serves women of all ages who share an interest in rural life. We offer support and friendship for women with an interest in the land and rural issues.
Rural Women New Zealand is a leading voice for rural women and makes submissions on a wide range of topics affecting the rural sector.
Rural Women were the 2011 Regional Runner Up in the Heritage and Environment section of the Trust Power Community Awards for their outstanding contribution to the Central Otago Community. This was for the Guide to Tarras, Taste of Tarras tour and various other projects that the Rural Women have been involved with in the community.
