How much do we really know about the corn we regularly consume...and how familiar are we with those in our surroundings who proudly produce it? Well this week, I bring you the absolute perfect guest to fill in these knowledge and familiarity gaps! She is Kate Pride of Henderson County, who serves as Communications Director with the Kentucky Corn Growers Association. Kate will offer insight into her extensive background on the farm, describe her path to the KCGA, and explain the nonprofit's commendable mission. She'll also shed light on corn's vital role in fueling industries across Kentucky such as ethanol and bourbon, summarize unique KCGA programs, and detail the perks of organizational membership.
