The District Rural Women's Association Wiesbaden, Rheingau & Main-Taunus, which today (as of 2016) consists of 22 local associations - including the local associations of Auringen, Bierstadt, Breckenheim, Erbenheim, Igstadt, Kloppenheim, Kostheim, Medenbach, Naurod and Nordenstadt - was founded in 1948. After the Second World War, the teachers at the agricultural winter school in the Wiesbaden area were particularly committed to the interests of rural women. Among them was Margot Faust, who founded the first district rural women's association in Wiesbaden with others in 1948. Also in 1948, the Landfrauenverband Hessen-Nassau and the Landfrauenverband Kurhessen were founded, which merged in 1973 to form the Landfrauenverband Hessen, as well as the Deutscher Landfrauenverband.

The idea of joining together in separate associations goes back to the founding of the first "Agricultural Housewives' Association" in 1898 by the landowner Elisabet Boehm (1859-1943) in Rastenburg in East Prussia. She wanted to improve the working and living conditions of women in the countryside and unite them in associations for further education in the domestic and cultural fields.

Today, rural women are considered the largest women's association in the world. The district rural women's association had around 1,500 members in 2014. In addition to lectures and further education seminars on domestic and agricultural topics, it offers events on legal issues or problems relating to environmental protection, for example. Excursions, trips and computer courses round off the program. For many years, the Wiesbadener Landfrauen have organized the annual harvest festival at Warmen Damm together with others.
