Georgia Agriculture and the National Peanut Board


Casey Cox Kerr will provide an overview of Georgia agriculture and National Peanut Board priorities and initiatives at this week’s Rotary meeting.

Casey represents the sixth-generation of her family to farm on the Flint River in South Georgia. Her farm, Longleaf Ridge, produces sweet corn and field corn, peanuts, soybeans and timber. Prior to returning to the farm full-time, she managed the Flint River Soil and Water Conservation District, serving as executive director for five years. She is currently chair of the National Peanut Board and serves on the boards of the Georgia Agribusiness Council, American Peanut Council, Georgia Seed Development Commission, and Flint River Soil and Water Conservation District.

Casey is a graduate of Leadership Georgia (2019) and the Institute for Georgia Environmental Leadership (2016). She holds a Bachelor of Science in Natural Resource Conservation from the University of Florida. Her most unique professional experience was teaching Cookie Monster and Gonger how peanut butter is made on Season 49 of Sesame Street. She lives between Camilla and Thomasville with her husband Chris and daughter Rooney.
