Jon Jackson is continuing to serve his country via Comfort Farms. As a 9 year US Army Veteran, it makes me proud to see Jon provide services to his fellow Veteran brothers and sisters! As a African American from the South (Florida) and a military beat (my father served 30 years in the Army as a Infantry Sergeant Major and was stationed at Ft. Benning, Georgia) I smiled when I read the story and it brought out good memories. Thank you Jon for your leadership!

I’ve never met the man but I’ve friended him on Facebook several years ago and have watch his journey uncomfort farms grow and its success. I pray for him and his mission of love there in Georgia. I will visit that farm one day and meet him and shake his hand and meet his beautiful family. My husband is a veteran as well and through him I understand a little bit of the battles of our combat veterans. I can’t praise the works of comfort Farms enough. Im praying for its continued growth and success.
