JR Moore

Farming since 2016

Although gratifying, farming is a tough lifestyle that's only suited to those who are willing to put in the effort. JR is a first-generation farmer who's been farming since 2016. It has opened his eyes to all the work that goes into creating a quality product, and he wants people to recognize the time and care that farmers put into raising a flock of birds. As someone who is self-sufficient, JR likes that his career allows him to be his own boss. He lives in North Carolina, where he operates four houses.
