Ever had a garden? Are you a Vet? How about working an acre or two and selling what you produce?
Sound like a good idea? Well,, that where Armed to Farm comes in. A network of vets who do just that and help each other make it work.
Last year, the National Center for Appropriate Technology reached 105 participants with four Armed to Farm events, including one in Bangor, Maine. The New Hampshire session is one of four trainings being held this year, with other programs in California and Montana and a special urban farming initiative in Washington, D.C. Next year, Armed to Farm is coming to Vermont.
