Veteran Chases Her Farm Dream in Arkansas
As a child, Rori was drawn to farming. While growing up in Noble, Oklahoma, her family didn’t farm. So, studying agriculture was never presented to her as a possibility. Instead, she went on to study art and eventually joined the Navy, serving for fourteen years. Afterward, with a child to support, she worked in the New Mexico oil fields. Throughout it all, the desire to farm remained a constant for Rori. She wanted to learn how to grow food for her family and community. This led to attending the CAFF Farm School on a Hometown Heroes Scholarship.
