National Program Helps Veterans Transition Into Farm Life

Armed to Farm graduate Jordan McDuffie examines a calf on his farm in Maine.

Armed to Farm is a national organization that has helped hundreds of U.S. military veterans make a transition to farm life. While they may sound like very different occupations, KGNU’s Benita Lee learned from two veterans involved in the program that soldiering and farming require a similar blend of vigilance and stoicism.
