Battlefields to Fertile Fields: SHA developing program to prepare military veterans for

successful and rewarding careers in regenerative agriculture

To assist U.S. military veterans in preparing for important and fulfilling careers in regenerative

agriculture, the non-profit Soil Health Academy is excited to announce the creation of

“Battlefields to Fertile Fields” (BF2FF).

The BF2FF program is being created to provide interested veterans with practical, on-site

learning and training opportunities featuring some of the nation’s leading regenerative farmers

and ranchers. To provide foundational education, the program will also award veterans with

scholarships to SHA’s world-renowned, three-day on-farm schools.

The program’s learning content will be adapted as needed to comply with respective service

branch transitioning programs, and the individual training needs of discharged veterans—all of

which will help participants prepare for successful careers in regenerative farming, ranching or

associated fields.

Interested veterans are encouraged to contact info@SoilHealthAcademy.org to receive updates

and/or to pre-apply to the program.

You can follow U.S. Army Capt. Gil De Leon on his BF2FF transition regenerative journey on his YouTube channel.
