A monthly place for people and organizations serving veterans in agriculture to share resources, compare needs, strengthen referrals, and find opportunities to work together.
The American VetFarm Network Partner Roundtable is an informal, focused virtual gathering for nonprofit, government, university, Extension, and service-provider partners working with veterans in agriculture.
Experienced farmers who are considering a nonprofit, educational program, or other veteran-serving initiative are also welcome to join and learn more about the organizations, resources, and referral networks already working in this space.
There is no expectation to attend every month, and meetings are not recorded.
