A Hero and His Honeybees

From the kitchen table to the boardroom table, USDA brings people together across the nation for: healthier food, natural resources and people; a stronger agricultural industry; and economic growth, jobs and innovation.

Each Friday, meet those farmers, producers and landowners through our #FridaysOnTheFarm stories. Visit local farms, ranches, forests and resource areas where USDA customers and partners do right and feed everyone.

This Friday, meet Eric Grandon, an Army veteran who never dreamed of being a farmer. Eric and his wife Mary now own and operate Sugar Bottom Farm in Clay County, West Virginia, where they produce honey, vegetables, fruit, and molasses.
