About this Event

Veterans: Feed Your Family, Grow Your Community.

University of Idaho Extension is now recruiting for the 2026 Harvest Heroes growing season at Spaulding Ranch Park in Boise.

The Harvest Heroes Program brings Military Veterans and their families together to learn hands-on how to grow, harvest and market urban agriculture products in real time by spending a season growing together on a community farm.

This event is a FREE Information session for veterans and family members to learn about the program and to join in a morning of family-friendly mini farming and gardening workshops and tours of the site. Workshops include starting seeds at home, growing microgreens, choosing and planting cover crops, and fruit tree care.

No experience required.
