Do you know a woman doing amazing things in the dairy industry? If, so Jersey Canada wants to hear from you.

Join Jersey Canada to help celebrate women in the dairy industry by nominating someone to be recognized on its social media channels for International Women’s Day this March 8, 2025, as well as in the March issue of the Canadian Jersey Breeder.

Jersey Canada is an agricultural association in Canada for owners and breeders of Jersey cattle. The association is responsible for the management of the Jersey herdbook, and its role is to develop the Jersey breed in Canada.

For its celebration of women in dairy, all you have to do is:

  • Send an email with a photo of your nominee and a small paragraph describing why you are nominating them to michelle@jerseycanada.com no later than February 7, 2025.

Don’t miss out on the chance to give well-deserved recognition to your mom, sister, wife, daughter, colleague, or business partner for International Women’s Day.
