Meet Jacob Slaughter ’24:
Jacob hails from the college town of Hanover, New Hampshire, where he grew up in the outdoors. Before Yale, he attended The Mountain School, an agriculture-focused semester school, and spent his summers on farm crews in central Vermont. Jacob's love of agriculture has continued to grow over the time he has spent on the Farm, where his favorite crop is compost and his favorite tool is the scuffle hoe. When he's not on the Old Acre, you can find Jacob cycling, planning FOOT trips, or exploring new swimming holes.
