Jacob Chance

A Woodstock native, Jacob Chance, also known as the bearded dragon, found his way to Blacksburg, VA, to pursue his passion in wildlife with a Bachelor’s degree in Horticulture at Virginia Tech. While chasing this dream the paths of Jacob Chance and James Ulmer, the owner of Back to Nature, crossed. James and Jacob found that they both shared an appreciation for beautiful landscaping. Also while at school Jacob worked at the Haun Horticulture garden. His expertise is backed by a class C contractor’s license and 7 years of experience which two of those years he owned and ran his own company. Naturally, Jacobs’s integrity and love of connecting with our customers made him a natural fit to take the role of a maintenance team leader.

When not hard at work, Jacob is an avid outdoors man and in his spare time he finds tranquility in hunting, fishing and camping with his pups. He says that he is grateful for everything in life but the real truth to it is Back to Nature is beyond grateful to have Jacob part of our team.
