VetCorps members\, during their six-month service term\, participate in agriculture training\, such as USDA and NMDA programming\, and Military to civilian transitional training. The training aims to develop the members’ agricultural skills and knowledge\, while simultaneously improving their whole health\, empowering them to improve or start their own farm operations. Each member undergoes 360 hours of hands-on experiential agriculture and 90 hours of agricultural and military to civilian training during the six-month program term. During their training\, members will participate in various agriculture projects\, peer-to-peer connections\, and community events. These events provide members with a low stress training opportunity to interact with the community. \nWhat exactly does VetCorps train? \nThe VetCorps training curriculum is diverse\, focusing on two main components—agriculture and whole health. For agriculture\, members take a Farming and Ranching Class Series\, with six classes focused on soil\, water\, planting\, hoop houses\, hydroponics\, farm safety\, animal husbandry\, animal awareness\, and farming techniques/tips. Members also attend a beekeeping course series\, along with daily experiential agriculture training on La Finca Militar. \nWhy should I serve? \nOutside of all the reasons listed above\, VetCorps gives Military Veterans and Military Family members a sense of community and family. Previous members have often used the word “family” to describe their fellow crew members. VetCorps is designed to have members working together often\, striving towards a common goal—that central “2nd mission” of providing fresh\, healthy food for the Taos community.
