NEW HEALTHY VETERAN LIFESTYLE "VETS 2 FARMERS"
OUR PURPOSE
Let's rebuild the foundation for our Vets by providing Urban-Farm & Home, a community where they can work and live. This initiative represents “The New Healthy Veteran Lifestyle.” According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, 37,828 veterans are homeless on any given night. We’re not just aiming to end veteran homelessness; we want to create a self-sustainable farming lifestyle that promotes well-being.
What are the attributes of this program? We have the proven formula to offer veterans hydroponics training, employment opportunities, and support in becoming self-sufficient and self-sustainable. Veterans will have the chance to become Entrepreneur Business Owners in the Vet2Farmers development program. Our vision includes building a Vets2Farmers community featuring Tiny Homes and a Hydroponic Greenhouse Urban Farm, among other resources.
The Vets2Farmers program will provide care and training for veterans to become skilled Veteran Farmers during a transitional period, allowing homeless Vets to call this community their home. Qualified veterans will receive free Room & Board during a 2-week certification training program focused on hydroponics farming. Upon certification, they will be offered full-time job placements.
After approximately six months, once veterans establish creditworthiness, we will assist them in purchasing an Urban-Farm-Home using VA and USDA programs. This will empower them to become Entrepreneur Business Farmers within the V2F community.
Our Vets2Farmers business model offers each individual Entrepreneur Farmer the opportunity to generate yearly revenues exceeding $100,000. We are guiding our Vets towards financial independence and a self-sustainable future.
Our goal is to foster a community of Veterans where they can live alongside others with shared experiences. As highlighted by VA studies, this environment is ideal for their stability and happiness due to the sense of camaraderie it provides.

Hydroponic Farming - Living Foods
Hydroponics farming allows for year-long growth, enabling 6-10 times more harvests than traditional soil farming, making it a valuable business opportunity. Through hydroponics training, individuals can learn how to achieve 11-15 harvests per year while enjoying better working conditions. This method uses only 5-20% of the water compared to soil farming, making it an eco-friendly option for self-sustainable farming. With the addition of nutrients from a mineral-based formula, organic vegetables produced through this method provide 3-10 times more nutrition than produce purchased at supermarkets, benefiting both consumers and veteran support programs focused on sustainable agriculture.
Training Program
Assistance is provided from USDA, and we have the support of our affiliate, The Terrace Foundation, which has been farming for many years and specializes in hydroponics training. They handle all of the training for self-sustainable farming practices. With its successful model, The Terrace Foundation has used the proceeds from growing vegetables to provide over 30,000 free meals per year to low-income elderly individuals in the local Santa Barbara neighborhood, while also supporting veteran support programs.

Veterans Suicide Prevention

There are 18.2 million veterans in the US and 1.3 million active-duty soldiers. The average suicide rate of veterans is 22 every day. To combat this crisis, we need to implement veteran support programs that encourage self-sustainable farming practices, such as hydroponics training, helping our veterans embrace a new 'Veteran Lifestyle' and take pride in being American Vets once again.
