Damian Mason
Jay Hill wasn’t a farm kid but at age 16 he decided he wanted to be a farmer. He went about pursuing his professional vision by joining forces with his father — who wanted Jay to attend college — by producing onions on the ten acres his father owned. Jay also worked for a produce company for 14 years, all the while learning the ins and outs of Agribusiness. Today, Jay operates or is partnered on a few different ventures. He's mostly a grower and marketer of produce but he’s also into packaged alfalfa with his latest endeavor, Chaffhaye. You’ll enjoy this discussion with an entrepreneur in the Business of Agriculture.
