[vetsinag] Help Us Spread the Word: Armed to Farm Training in Iowa!

[Robyn Metzger]

Dear Armed to Farm friends and alumni,
We have a great training opportunity for folks in the Midwest! NCAT's Armed to Farm program has been providing FREE sustainable agriculture training to active-duty service members and veterans for 11 years, but we've never hosted a training in Iowa before! We're excited to head to Cedar Rapids at the end of this month. The training will take place July 29-August 2. Farmer veterans who would like to attend can APPLY HERE<https://www.armedtofarm.org/armed-to-farm-iowa/> by July 7.

We're teaming up with Practical Farmers of Iowa<https://www.facebook.com/practicalfarmers?__cft__%5b0%5d=AZXzg4IWEL3-eg99sYIvlaKWtwPvRL__M28pojggDJ6cSE1qX0OXutt3f371_Nv7NlQgaxxLKgoHyHhcVPVyajB7_fHZXdN5c9TB-jLCF21miqQXV_d5v4PqgdQYnioAjMV6RZrZtaV7aNq7QEZPoJD_c9g-aKcAFlSwbLy-rG3j3d0zucAC1gY9NBoQJnQ0uc7M3drU2HwMLvvKxUPJixdv&__tn__=-%5dK-R> to offer an outstanding week of interactive classroom sessions, hands-on activities on local farms, and lots of peer-to-peer learning and support. We provide lodging, most meals, and local transportation. We also have a travel reimbursement program to help offset the cost of traveling to the training.

It's going to be a great week! Could you do us a favor? Please forward this information to any service members or veterans who you think would be interested. More details about the training are available at armedtofarm.org/apply/<https://www.armedtofarm.org/apply/>.

Thank you!

All the best,
Robyn & the Armed to Farm team
