We are officially recruiting for our 2026 cohort of VAFARMS! VAFARMS is a compensated work therapy program focused on sustainable agriculture. The program runs from mid-March to late October. Veterans work and learn at our farm for 2 days a week with the support of vocational rehabilitation case managers, therapists, and peer support specialists. If this interests you or someone you know, please check out talmar.org/vafarms, or contact vincent.cambria@va.gov for more information.
