Original Note:
Jefferson, a well-known enslaver, did not cultivate any crops while serving as vice president in 1767 because he did not assume the office until 1797, and like most slave owners, he did not tend to his own crops or gardens. https://www.whitehousehistory.org/slavery-in-the-thomas-jefferson-white-house https://www.senate.gov/about/officers-staff/vice-president/vice-presidents.htm
