EASTERN Oregon Chapter
The Eastern Oregon Chapter currently serves Baker, Malheur, Morrow, Umatilla, Union, and Wallowa counites. We strive to support youth through educational activities and partnerships with 4-H and FFA chapters. Join us to share the story of agriculture in Eastern Oregon.
Eastern Oregon Chapter Supports…
Our chapter supports Ag youth through stock show buckle sponsorship and FFA auction donations. In our efforts to share the story of today’s agriculture we maintain a social media presence sharing agricultural facts and promoting agricultural interests. We also facilitate the presence of crop signs in fields along the major roadways in our counties. Through Ag in the Classroom our members share an agricultural lesson and read an agricultural book to elementary students. The EOWA is proud to support the next generation of Women in Agriculture through our scholarship program. We are always welcome to new ideas and help on ways to promote agriculture!
