Ground Operations: Battles to Farmfields

The Armory Center for the Arts holds a screening of Dulanie Ellis & Raymond Singer's documentary about military veterans taking up farming occupations after the Iraq War, followed by a conversation with the filmmakers & a farmer-veteran Edgar Hercilla.

From the Armory Center's website:

GROUND OPERATIONS: Battlefields to Farmfields has begun a national tour to champion a growing network of combat veterans who are transitioning to restorative and challenging new careers in organic farming, ranching and artisan food products. Our goal is to raise awareness and resources to help them get started with healthy new lives for themselves and food security for communities across America.

Organic food and beer will be available at the screening. All proceeds go to fund benefit the Ground Operations national campaign and The Growing Experience. Click above for more information.
