Our little group enjoys what we do.  Enjoy these photos of some of our past outreach activities.



The Navidad Valley CattleWomen (NVCW) serve Fayette, Lavaca and Colorado counties and are affiliated with the Texas CattleWomen, which is a statewide beef promotion and education organization.  NVCW works to support local youth with scholarships and provide quality information on the industry and how to incorporate beef into a healthy diet.  Additionally, we work to support the community with targeted outreach projects that include a beefy twist.  We do what time and manpower permit to help promote a healthy and positive beef message.  All of us are tied to the BEEF industry one way or another, though not all of us own cattle.  We are a positive group of ladies and we support the industry we love as well as the communities we live in.  Here are just a few things that we have done in the last year:
