A non profit was formed by a diverse group of veterans, farm and ranch experts and educators.

The concept for the SAVE Farm began nearly a decade ago, when retired Colonel Gary Lagrange and his daughter saw results from training beekeeping and providing therapy to soldiers at nearby Ft Riley. The SAVE Farm in Manhattan, KS., is one of them. While this day is a wonderful tribute, there are organizations who honor veterans every single day of the year. Our HistoryĪmericans celebrate Veterans Day on November 11 to honor our veterans’ patriotism, love of country, and willingness to serve and sacrifice for the common good. We are working to develop a model for agricultural training that can be employed throughout the United States. We deliver our services through a 308-acre farm near Riley, KS. Army military installation and Kansas State University. We currently operate in Kansas near the Ft.

This allows us to maintain loyalty to our servicemember roots with ongoing support and integration while also reaching more students who desire continuing education or our apprentice curriculum in on-farm classes. As our resources have grown, we have transitioned to serving all individuals with a passion for agriculture who can benefit from our services.

The SAVE Farm began by serving servicemembers, veterans, and their families. We believe that our commitment to live out our values, mission, and vision make us a premier agricultural training organization. Our values are a visible statement of who we are and what we stand for.
