Star Spangled Salute: A Veteran Creates a Healing Space

 

 

Today Star Spangled Salute honors Air Force Veteran John Mahshie.  The former senior airman once struggled with his own mental health issues, but now he’s taking what he learned and a little bit of land in North Carolina and is now helping other Veterans. John created a space called “The Healing Farm”. John, struggled with his mental health after his service and after his dad died in a motorcycle accident and it was his trouble processing his grief that gave life to the Healing Farm.  It’s 9-acres that John turned into a community for other Veterans who needed a sense of belonging.  By growing organic fruits and vegetables John says it helps feed the body and the spirit.  Thank you John for being a light and THANK YOU for your service.
