The three smiling veterans sitting atop this new ‘Gator at Veterans Farm in Jacksonville, Florida could not be happier with their new “toy.” As Adam Burke, Veterans Farm founder wrote today, “
“It is sooo cool to have this and it is already making a difference. It was funny seeing the guys’ reactions as it was like seeing them at Christmastime. This machine has been so very helpful this harvest season. Last month we graduated another group of 5 veterans, and we’ve just started another group of 5 this month. The past 3 months we’ve been working sun up ’til sun down getting the crops out of the fields.“
We can see easily how this small, compact vehicle can zip around the farm carrying both staff and equipment to where it is needed. Certainly one of the Good People Fund’s best investments in Adam’s special work with returning veterans and training them for a new life.
