Ag-Curious? Go Farm!
Jay Bost was born in Oklahoma but acquired a fascination with tropical agriculture in high school which he has been riding ever since. He has studied farming systems and/or worked on farms in Mexico, Belize, St Croix (USVI), and Florida – in addition to a number of temperate locales. Guiding his work are interests in crop diversity, the power of genetic adaptation, and robust local food systems. Jay has been working/farming in Waimanalo at the UH Station since 2013, first as a PhD student with CTAHR and with GoFarm Hawai’i since 2014 as “Farm Coach”. GoFarm Hawai’i has been an excellent venue to combine passions of teaching, growing food, breeding, and producing seed.
