Against the Grain
Women who have married farmers are frequently involved in the running of a farm but are often known only as the 'farmer's wife'. Against the Grain presents a series of stories of women who have worked against prejudice, shaking off this tag and defining themselves as farmers in their own right.

These autobiographical stories explore the challenges and isolation of farm life and show the courage, interest, passion and leadership among women involved in agriculture.

This Digital Storytelling project was a partnership with VicHealth and the women's rural network Partners in Grain.
