Levels of completion will be available and include course certification up to an Associate’s degree.

Workshops & Farmwalks
Vets on the Farm and partnering agencies offer workshops and farmwalks throughout the year. These events provide our Veterans with an opportunity for learning outside of a traditional classroom and another way to connect with fellow Veterans and individuals interested in agriculture.
Homegrown by Heroes
HGH is an official farmer veteran branding program of America. The HGH logo serves to inform consumers that products donning the logo were produced by military veterans. The program is available to farmers, ranchers, fisherman, and value-added producers of all branches and eras of military services.
