Jacob Slosberg is co-owner of Boldly Grown Farm, a certified organic vegetable farm in Washington’s Skagit Valley. A Seattle native, he decided he wanted to be a farmer on an eighth-grade school trip to Costa Rica, and went on to study agroecology in the Faculty of Land and Food Systems at the University of British Columbia. At the UBC Farm, he managed annual crop and poultry production while helping oversee produce sales, grant-funded research, children’s programs, and the farming practicum. Alongside building Boldly Grown, Jacob spent nine years as the PNW technical sales representative for Gowan Seed Company, providing technical support to more than 40 medium and large-scale growers across Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia, before joining the farm full-time in 2024. He has served on the board of the Puget Sound Food Hub Co-op since 2021, as President since 2023.
