Jason Billue served in the Army for over 20 years, including three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Looking for a new challenge after retirement, he dabbled in beekeeping before jumping in feet-first to the world of agriculture entrepreneurship, winding up with a bee-products business, hundreds of chickens, and a container hydroponic garden. Passionate about helping other veterans, Jason emphasizes the importance of networking, mentorship, and marketing strategies in agriculture & shares strategies and resources for those looking to explore or get started in farming.
