Veteran Healing Farm

The Veterans Healing Farm is a 501c3 nonprofit established in 2013 to enhance the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of our nation’s Veterans through agri-therapy and community. They accomplish this through three primary programs; organic farming, beekeeping, and continuing education workshops on medicinal herbs, agriculture, and mental health.  Additionally, we support our nation’s veterans by growing and donating high-quality fruits, vegetables, and flower bouquets to veterans and their caregivers free of charge.

Veterans Healing Farm (VHF) Multi-day Boot Camps for Veterans are a one-of-a-kind experiential training program that educates and empowers veterans with lessons in farming, homesteading, holistic health, and sustainability. Topics include organic farming, beekeeping, off-grid energy systems, animal husbandry, yoga, food preservation, composting, medicinal herbs, and more.

WAKE Clinical Retreat

Wake’s Clinical Retreats are custom-designed and legal psilocybin experiences which create a holistic environment for personal growth and development.

While ceremonies and wellness modalities are a key component, these clinical retreats also function as part of a registered clinical research trial where we do personal assessments by gathering data through wearable technology, saliva, blood and questionnaires.

This information is shared with you through discussion with our clinical team, and allows us to give you a deeper understanding into your overall well-being both mentally and physically. All information remains strictly confidential within the study and we provide you with a report and explanation of your results. You can ask that your name remain anonymous, or opt out of the research, but this work allows us help you more effectively, and support the broadening of this industry and push to make it more accessible to people in need of help.

Veteran Reviews

“The Wake Clinic provided me a sense of community and intimacy that I, like so many others, have been needing. It has allowed me to be more vulnerable and expressive with others, while also realizing the love and potential I have inside.”

ALEX US Marine Veteran

“There is an immense void in the mental health industry as we are looking to treat TBI and mental health disorders. My experience with the Wake Clinical Retreat and custom protocols to decreasing inflammation in the brain, is light years ahead of the industry. I am thankful that Wake was able to provide me with not only a personal transformation but receiving custom clinical data on my physical and neurological well-being was an eye opener!”
