Description
TitleBanner of the Darfield branch of the Women's Division Federated Farmers (WDFF)
DescriptionHand-made banners were the hallmark of each branch of the organisation known as WDFU, WDFF and now Rural Women New Zealand. They formed the centrepiece of each meeting, and were taken locally and nationally to conferences. They were often embroidered: such as the Darfield banner here, made from a tapestry.
Featuring the WDFF logo in the centre, the design incorporates elements of springtime and handcrafts. The Darfield branch of the WDFU was one of the organisation's earliest, opening in August 1929.SourceDarfield Branch of Rural Women New Zealand
