Justin Jacobs farms with his family in North Western North Dakota. They started building their family farm in 2016 on 45 acres. They have since grown to farming 750 acres in 2025. Their farm practices are built on implementing and developing soil health practices, including intercropping and the use of cover crops. 

Justin formerly worked for NDSU as a research specialist. While working in the field of research he gained an interest in the practice of intercropping. However, Justin took the next step and began to implement the practice on his own farm, 8 years ago. Intercropping has become one of the staples of the Jacobs' farming practices. They have grown combinations like pea and canola, pea and flax, pea and durum, and pea and mustard. While implementing the practice on their farm, they have seen ups and downs. Justin's desire is to share these highs and lows of intercropping so that others can more easily adopt this practice. 

The Jacobs' have a desire and passion to help improve their farming practices and soil health. They are farming not only for their present, but for their future.
