Agriculture is about weather, timing, technology and a trailer full of other ‘ologies’ -- with a fair share of luck thrown in. But at its core, agriculture is about people – their achievements, struggles and the things they do.

We hope all of our stories connect with you, and we’re grateful to have the chance to present them to you. But we at Southeast Farm Press most like the stories about people, the profiles and spotlights that allow us to visit with and talk to you. Everybody in Southeast agriculture has a story well worth telling; these are just a few of those people from 2016.
