Foods, Jimbo’s Naturally and directly at local farmers’ markets in Hillcrest and Rancho Santa Fe, Karen’s smiling face is a testament to the success of her plan, “Our goal is to augment and accel-
erate the organic agricultural revolution across America, in partnership with our military veterans,” says Karen. “Our philosophy is to call up and redirect our veteran’s attributes of leadership, tena- ciousness and adaptability, as well as the willingness to take on severe chal- lenges, to achieve the highest standards in plant production.” VSAT has become a reality, with
three classes graduating this year so far, and more to come. The program is open to any veteran looking to be part of something greater than themself, and who is willing to meet the challenges of self-employment, entrepreneurship and agricultural management. It may also be a lifesaving answer for return- ing veterans that want to reintegrate; they can become part of a bigger unit outside the military—the community of VSAT graduates. “The most common cause of death among returning veterans is suicide,” advise the Archipleys, who believe such tragedies can be avoided through sense of purpose and challenge. VSAT pro- vides the opportunity to tap into a new identity and career via the leadership qualities already instilled by military service. The program also provides the professional support that veterans need to create a career and the tools to find the funding sources to develop farms while serving the greater good. Colin continues to be a Marine, serving in the war on terror, and Karen, as a military spouse, has joined him by providing returning warriors with an opportunity to be heroes at home, as well as in far-off lands. Natural Awaken- ings San Diego is proud to honor these hometown heroes for the work they have already accomplished and the work they will do in the future, healing lives and creating an American quilt of sustainable family farms.
