Mission

Empower military veterans to grow food, communities, and each other.

About

Farm operations: In 2018, veteran and civilian volunteers gave over 2,200 volunteer hours and grew over 10,000 pounds of food. We distributed most of it through our farmers market stands in Marysville, Washington and near the VA clinic in Mount Vernon, Washington, local food banks, and organizations who feed the homeless.

Interesting data from their 2020 990 filing

The filing clearly states the mission of the non-profit as “Our mission is to empower military veterans to grow food, communities, and each other. our long-term vision is to end isolation that leads to suicide and help make sustainable agriculture the norm. we combine military veteran reintegration with sustainable agricultural initiatives. using the farm as the catalyst, we provide opportunities for miliary veterans to learn new skills, engage with the broader civilian community, and provide each other with peer support. our programs address veteran isolation, a roote cause of many issues facing the veteran population; including suicide, unemployment, homelessness, and divorce. by working to create a culture of supportive practices, our mission is focused on long-term prevention of, rather than, reaction to the issues mentioned above.”.
