Growing Warriors is a project that helps veteran families get started in growing their own food or launching into small-scale farming. This effort, with backing from Grow Appalachia, Appalachia Science in the Public Interest, Community Farm Alliance and the Farmer Veteran Coalition, is adding to veteran farming momentum in the state. The Kentucky Department of Agriculture has come up with a new logo, Homegrown by Heroes, to put on veteran-grown products.

Department of Agriculture Commissioner Comer recently unveiled a farm jobs program and label for veterans. Growing Warriors was instrumental in making this happen!
