Many in western North Carolina have heard of the Veterans Healing Farm, and the wonderful work they do for Veterans in need in the region. A little over a year ago, the organization was faced with the challenge of moving operations from their old location just west of Hendersonville, North Carolina. Fortunately, they recently found a perfect new home in Mills River, just 20 minutes outside of Hendersonville, on eleven-and-a-half acres. Their new forever home couldn’t be more perfect for their needs.
I wanted to share a video that the Lucey Agency produced for the Veterans Healing Farm. In it, you get to meet Alan Yeck, director of the VHF, who takes you on a tour of the new property and talks about his journey and vision for the farm.
The Veterans Healing Farm’s mission is to enhance the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of the nation’s Veterans and their families. The VHF accomplishes this by creating a safe, peaceful environment that fosters healing and camaraderie. Farm programming focuses on mental health, and includes agritherapy, workshops, and live events. Everything they grow is given back to the Veteran community and other local organizations in need.
