Former NFL player at the center of feeding others

HARRISONBURG, Va. — When former star NFL center Jason Brown left the St. Louis Rams in 2012 to become a farmer in North Carolina, he admittedly had no idea what he was doing.

“I don’t know anything about farming,” Brown said, during the “Frontier Luncheon” in late May at Eastern Mennonite University’s Summer Peacebuilding Institute. “I watched Youtube videos.”
