"Jan has a very unique perspective and skillset - he is a farmer, retailer, and former financier, who intimately gets the realities of producing food against the financial realities. His insight into the issues of food, its production and its sale are second to none. When I want to sense check an issue, or get a second opinion, his name is at the top of my list."
