F4F - Mark Thomas - High Yield Extraordinaire
We're thrilled to catch up with Mark Thomas, a third-generation farmer from Central Kentucky. Mark and his family operate a farm with corn, beans, hay, and cattle. Despite being "runner up" for the 2021 Outstanding Young Farm Family Award, Mark's dedication to farming and community involvement shines through. From his leadership roles in FFA and 4-H to his humorous approach to agriculture on TikTok, Mark's passion for farming knows no bounds. Join us as we dive into his journey, his family's farming legacy, and some unexpected fun facts about this dynamic young farmer.
