Heroic Food

Heroic Food is a nonprofit, start-up agricultural training program designed to prepare military veterans in sustainable farming, agricultural trades and food entrepreneurship. We are based on a farm near Hudson, New York and are fortunate to be partnered with the Farmer Veteran Coalition and the Hawthorne Valley Association. Our program offers on-farm residence, paid apprenticeships, hands-on training, and instruction in a wide range of farm enterprises with an emphasis on ecology, conservation, farm planning and management, green building and sustainable living. We work to provide a supportive environment designed to help veterans heal, grow and meet their learning objectives.
