Hello friends of the farm! Our new website is live and we're very excited. Don't forget to bookmark it so you can stay in the know about all that's happening on the farm. It's a new season here at the Veteran Farm Project and we're excited to get things started. As some of you many know, Mother Nature wasn't kind to us in 2023.
