🌾 “Diversity is such a big role in agribusiness because there needs to be more ideas, more people of different backgrounds to help solve these problems.” Jannai Oganeku, a senior at CSU & MANNRS VP, shares her passion for addressing ag challenges in Hawaii. Innovation starts with inclusivity. 💡 #TechTuesday #TogetherWeGrow #WomenInAg

Together We Grow #OnTheGo📍 Las Vegas, NV I want to thank Nicole DeVon the Executive Director of the Tribal Agriculture Fellowship for affording me the opportunity to connect and engage with the indigenous tribes and native students at the Intertribal Agriculture Council Conference. The vulnerability and stories of their experiences being native and advocating for equitable opportunities in food and agriculture would bring you tears. Trust and cultural appreciation is required when engaging with these communities, and honored to be apart of their experience. This year has been transformational. I’ve been blessed to engage with black, special needs, LGBTQ+, hispanic/latino, indigenous, and veteran organizations in food and ag and it’s evident that we are all fighting for the same equitable opportunities to thrive in tidays workforce. Under my leadership with Together We Grow we want to be that bridge to promoting a diverse workforce. We want to house the diversity data in food and ag, we want to ensure the right people are connected for intentional engagement, and most of all we want to continue to champion an #AgForAll Culture. #CultuvatingDiversity #HarvestingPotential
