As part of this week “Newsmaker” show of Sarah’s Country, outgoing Rural Women New Zealand president Fiona Gower explains that Rural Women New Zealand is more than the ‘tea and scones brigade’ as she reflects on her four years with the organisation.

It's the opportunities and experiences money can’t buy that Fiona Gower remembers when she looks back at her four years as Rural Women New Zealand (RWNZ) president.

Gower’s two two-year terms in the role and as a RWNZ board member ended in late November.

Her family has a long history of involvement with RWNZ, dating back to her mother and grandmother being members when it was known as the Women’s Division of Federated Farmers. It was changed to Rural Women New Zealand in 1999.
