The farm became very therapeutic for Lyndsey and became a place she wanted to be. “Even if you don’t want to be an organic farmer, it was for me a great way to decompress.” – Lyndsey Antanitis Veterans Farming Program Lyndsey helps veterans who come to the training program by directing them to the correct path for where they are in their farming aspirations.  She can assist them in acquiring land and getting them involved with a community so they can network.
