VAOC MISSION

At Veterans Aquaponics Outreach Center (VAOC), our mission is to empower Veterans through comprehensive vocational training in the art of Controlled Environmental Agriculture powered by renewable energy that emits near-zero emissions.

We are committed to equipping Veterans with the necessary skills and knowledge to pursue successful careers in sustainable agriculture. The VAOCs contribute to the development of environmentally-friendly food production solutions in urban, suburban, and rural communities.

We aim to bridge the gap between Veterans seeking new career opportunities and the growing demand for localized, fresh produce through our free training program, supported by grants and donations. Our commitment to veterans goes hand in hand with our dedication to sustainability. We aim to minimize our carbon footprint and promote responsible food production practices by harnessing the power of controlled environmental agriculture and renewable energy. We believe that empowering veterans in sustainable agriculture contributes to building resilient and self-sufficient communities.
