Homegrown Food for a Good Cause

Food from a traditional grocery store could be from anywhere in the world, depending on the product.

If you are interested in supporting Veteran farmers but unable to do so monetarily, consider sharing a Veteran-owned farm profile on your social media or with a friend – this increases their reach and will help them acquire new customers!
