This is why we do what we do.

At Vets on the Farm, it is never just about growing crops, it is about growing people, purpose, and possibility.
Partnering with Elixir Sauce Co. and La Presa Mexican Restaurant brings the mission full circle.

The jalapeños in this locally made green sauce were grown by Veterans right
here on the farm; hands in the soil, building skills for what comes next.

Moments like this matter.
They show what is possible when community invests in community.

🚜 Skid Steer Training…with a little less supervision than usual 😄

Grant is usually very protective of the skid steer…but he was not around, so Derek & Samson took full advantage and got some solid seat time in.

All jokes aside, this is what training at Vets on the Farm looks like.
Hands-on experience, real equipment, and the opportunity to build transferable skills directly into the workforce.

From safety and communication to confidence behind the controls, our crew is learning by doing. Every.Single.Day.

Interested in getting involved or learning alongside us? We would love to connect.
