      <image:title>Dirt Therapy - Veterans</image:title>
      <image:caption>We are a place you can find purpose and camaraderie again. We serve as a professional stepping stone, giving vets an opportunity to build their resume and their individual skill sets. Opportunities for vets to get involved include employment, volunteerism, internships, and work-study. Activities with us do not have to be limited to peer-support, farm, or market - we have veterans helping out with organizational development, fundraising, business and community networking, and educational projects.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Dirt Therapy - Community</image:title>
      <image:caption>Truly live out the phrase: "Thank you for your service". Our Farms provide a means for veterans &amp; the community to work alongside each other. By sowing seeds in the fields together, we also sow lasting friendships and help bridge the gap between the military veteran and civilian populations. A day on the farm with our vets removes previously held stereotypes and shows our community that veterans are assets and allies in the sustainable agriculture movement. The honor and support we’ve received from the community has been invaluable. We couldn’t exist without you!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Overview - Virtual Peer Support Training</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Principles of Peer Support are at the heart of every moment at Growing Veterans, from the field to our online classroom. Our Online Peer Support Training course is an excellent choice for those who want to take their personal skills to the next level. Growing Veterans’ formal Peer Support Training is a hands-on learning experience, developed by veterans and mental health care professionals - for veterans, civilians, mental health providers, businesses, and organizations committed to the wellness of veterans. This multi day online training has been accredited by the Washington Mental Health Counselors Association (WMCHA) and is eligible for 20.5 CEU's.  Throughout the year this course is held at varying times to suit different time zones and types of schedules. Peer support training is a great choice for those looking to get involved but may live too far away to visit our physical farm locations.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Overview - Dirt Therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is where the magic happens! Dirt therapy is the action of using agriculture &amp; time in nature to improve mental well being. This is our main program and most participants first taste of the peer support methodology we follow at Growing Veterans. All are welcome to our 2 farm locations: The Lynden farm- Located just north of Bellingham. This farm operates year round, and is the hub most of our workshops are hosted from. The Lynden farm is conveniently located in close distance to 5 colleges &amp; universities. It’s impossible for a veteran to fully come home without being an active member of their community again. In this we strive to bridge the gap between veterans and civilians. Vets are welcomed home, stereotypes are broken, &amp; friendships are formed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - FOOD</image:title>
      <image:caption>We grow food, literally, out on our organic farm in Lynden, Washington and our outpost farm on Greenbank Whidbey Island, WA. You can register to join us on the farm during our weekly drop-in volunteer days (Wednedays - Fridays). The majority of our food is donated to the Bellingham Food Bank &amp; North Whidbey Help House- with the rest given to volunteers &amp; interns.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - COMMUNITY</image:title>
      <image:caption>We grow community through joining Veterans with individuals, businesses, &amp; other groups throughout our region. Breaking isolation means strengthening the bridge between veteran &amp; civilian communities. Inquire using our contact page for info on scheduling an upcoming outreach event, corporate volunteer day, farm tour, or other brand collaboration with the vets. Our farm has the ability to grow organic produce such as hops, peppers, plant starts &amp; other summer veggies.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Home - EACH OTHER</image:title>
      <image:caption>We grow each other in multiple ways. While volunteering on the farm we deliver "Dirt Therapy" to one another. Both the soil on your hands &amp; the sound of a friendly voice on the other side of the row have been shown to be a positive experience. We also deliver our research backed and accredited Peer Support Training(PST) multiple times a year. All staff &amp; many of our interns have taken this training. Those trained in “PST” are taught to be a support system for all veterans &amp; civilians who walk through our doors. Even more organic is the energy that flows amongst veterans and civilians from all walks of life and all ages that come together on our farm to simply be with one another; share stories, laugh, and interact in a way that is centered on growing things with our hands instead of destroying.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Internships - “Thanks to GV and the Veteran Conservation Corps, I’ve been able to follow a new direction in my life that I’ve been interested in since I left the Navy – farming. Not only that, but the way that I approach my life is not with the same emergent, anxious feelings that I had before I began my time here”</image:title>
