High-quality, responsive support for the people navigating agriculture and the organizations helping them along the way.

The VetFarm Network app brings the network together in one place for veterans, service members, military spouses and families, farmers, educators, and organizations serving veterans in agriculture.
The app is currently free and browser-based while it is being developed and tested.
You may be exploring agriculture, building a farm business, looking for training, or trying to solve a specific problem. You do not need to know exactly which program or organization you need before reaching out.
We also work with nonprofits, government agencies, universities, Extension, service providers, and experienced farmers developing programs or resources for veterans.
