SEMINARY, Miss. (RFD News) — For most farmers, a corn crop represents months of work and the hope of turning a profit. For Mississippi farmer Cole Rogers, it’s about something different: feeding those in need.
RFD News Correspondent Tammi Arender introduces viewers to Rogers, founder of Seeds of Hope MS, a ministry dedicated to growing food for hungry families rather than for the marketplace.
With this season’s corn harvest now complete, the work is far from over.
Rogers and volunteers are already preparing for the next growing season. This fall, they plan to plant turnip greens and other vegetables, all of which will be harvested and given away to help feed members of their community.
Through Seeds of Hope MS, Rogers continues to use agriculture as a way to serve others, combining farming with a mission to help those facing food insecurity.
