Cumberland County is proud to offer to our active duty soldiers within 180 days of separating from the military, veterans, and spouses the "Soldiers to Agriculture" program.
This five week program will offer an unique and in-depth introduction to the many careers in agriculture. Participants will receive hands on training in and outside of the classroom. Classes will be held in the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Cumberland County Center, 301 East Mountain Drive, Fayetteville, NC.
