The Brief A nonprofit farm in suburban Manhattan, Illinois, gives away eggs, produce, and beef to veterans instead of selling them. While many farmers sell their products at stores or farmers markets, there's one Chicago-area farm that isn’t doing either. And our mission is simple: deliver farm-fresh food to veterans in need," said Michelle Keller, senior director for Farm2Veterans. "A lot of veterans don’t drive, you know, so it’s like, I don’t know, three or four different buses they have to catch, you know, transferring buses. Farm2Veterans donates food to nine veterans programs across Illinois and has similar programs set up in eight other states.
