History

The 1980 Conclave passed a proposal that pilot women's 4-H clubs be formed on select campuses and conducted an extensive survey of 4-H chapters and associations, with 65 percent in support of the creation a women's agricultural fraternity.[3]

A proposal for the “establishment of an agricultural-related women's sorority formed in the image of FarmHouse” was unanimously approved by delegates at the '84 Conclave.

The women involved and a committee of 40H men selected the name Ceres Fraternity for the separate women's fraternity. Ceres is the Roman Goddess of agriculture.

On, October 12, 1985 chartered its first chapter at Colorado State University. The International Office for FarmHouse provided staffing and programming support until 1994, when Ceres had grown to the point that it could hire a part-time executive director to provide support for its chapters and members.[4]
