Griffin Craig Gillmore of the Lakota FFA Chapter in Ohio has been engaged in his family farm for as long as he can remember. While the majority of the 1,780 acres are devoted to growing sugar beets, approximately 200 acres are dedicated to peppers, pickles, cabbage and sweet corn. Gillmore operates the 7120 Magnum tractor paired to the custom built 120’ conveyer system that is used for harvesting pickles. Gillmore is supported by his parents, Lisa and Craig.
He shares his experiences with Broadcast Desk Intern, Lydia Johnson.
