We visit three Southern farming families—two in Alabama, one operating a cattle farm and the other growing sweet potatoes, and a grain farmer in Mississippi who shares how he got his start in agriculture and what he loves about being a Southern farmer. Their individual stories reflect a shared love for agriculture, strong work ethics, and a commitment to farming and family.
