Naming themselves the 'Fierce Female Farmer Supporters', the 41 women were an integral part of supporting Margy Perkhun's Fierce Female Farmer initiative.
The trip was originally planned for November 2019, but bushfires caused the ladies to postpone their trip to February 2020.
Once the ladies arrived, they were able to see more of Inverell, including what the CBD had to offer.
They enjoyed browsing through the boutique shops and picking up a few goodies for themselves and family members.
The General Merchant hosted the ladies for a lovely dinner where they all got together with local women who shared their stories.
Inverell Chamber of Commerce president Nicky Lavender thanked the ladies for visiting and supporting small businesses around Inverell.
"It is so amazing that they have organised a trip to Inverell and hopefully they have a wonderful weekend," she said.
