“I just knew when I was kid that farming was what I wanted to do,” says Jason Wade, shrugging. “I loved being outside and being around equipment and helping my neighbor. The cattle, the tobacco, the hay. When we were kids we didn’t have cellphones or internet. I didn’t care much about sports at all. I would have rather been with my neighbors harvesting crops and being around the cattle and equipment. I love trying to grow crops and make them the best they are.”
