This week, Jaclyn spoke with Anne Fanatico, Program Director and Co-Founder of Frontline to Farm, which is led by App State’s Goodnight Family Department of Sustainable Development. The program supports veterans as they transition from military service to farming and educates a new generation of farmers. Army veteran Aaron Banner also joins the conversation to share his experience as a Frontline to Farm alumnus.

A former road scholar, Jaclyn made her first donation to WNCW from the cab of her big rig in 2007 and became a volunteer not long after. She hails from just down the road in Lincoln County. When not at the station, Jaclyn can be found foraging in the woods, making jellies and preserves, or tending her bee hives. In addition to bees, she cares for a cat named Poot and many plants.<br/><br/>
