WCIA Features the Vet Grown Greens Mission

We were thrilled to be featured in a televised news segment by WCIA News in Champaign. The story beautifully captured our mission to use the lessons learned in the military to build a sustainable, community-focused farm right here in Ford County.

The response from the community following the story was overwhelming and deeply encouraging. It's a clear sign that our mission to bolster local food independence resonates with our friends and neighbors.
