I  am Hayes Wilson. Like many others, I left Desert Storm with severe PTSD. Although my PTSD continues, I was introduced to horticulture right after the war, by my good friend Nathan.

Plants, dirt, animals ground me.

There is nothing like planting a seed and watching it grow. God tells us we plant a seed, water, feed and God gives growth. We know there are many places for help. We like to think that we are different, in that we take a casual approach. Come dig in the dirt, watch the chickens and cows, run our obstacle course, camp out on 32 acres by a running stream. Enjoy bonding by the fire, eat a meal, share some laughter. It is great therapy to work the ground – to create life.
