Growing Warriors is program in Kentucky which helps veterans get started in farming.

It is a program designed to train, assist, and equip veteran families with the skills, tools, and supplies needed to grow high quality naturally grown produce for their families, their communities, and their country. Growing Warriors is an opportunity for veterans to serve their communities in a new roll - as true nation builders - literally from the ground up - family by family and region by region.

The Growing Warrior Project is a partnership that includes veterans, civilians, and organizations. The intention is to bring these partners together to work as one. A driving force to help develop a local reliable food system.
