OUR FOCUS THIS WEEK IS ON WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS, AND THE UNIQUE CHALLENGES AND VIEWPOINTS THEY BRING TO NEW BUSINESS VENTURES. Our guests are LeAnn Ely, owner of Terre d'Esprit Farm, Kenna Neighbors, owner of Seed and a landscape business, and Angie Tretlow, President of Women in Agriculture. An article published by the Christian Science Monitor on December 27, 2010 reports that between 2002 and 2007, women created almost twice as many businesses as men, according to data from the Census Bureau. The number of women transitioning from the labor force to self-employment hit a two-decade low in 2007, just as the recession was about to hit, according to the Kauffman Foundation, a Kansas City, Mo., group devoted to entrepreneurship.
