Shuman Farms is the world’s premium producer of sweet onions, a homegrown success story out of Reidsville, GA – smack in the heart of Vidalia onion country. Founder John Shuman has long dreamed that at least one of his sons would come home to join the company. Now he knows they both are – and one reported for work in January after completing his education at the University of Georgia. You’ve seen the Shumans on our show before – they’re one of the stories we love to follow. But you’ve never seen them like this. It’s our very own crystal ball that will allow you to see what the future looks like now.

Season 5, Episode 02
There’s a long-time-and-growing concern in the world of agriculture: With a profession so demanding and often downright difficult, who’s going to come home and take over the farm when this generation is done? Quite often, sons and daughters don’t want to continue their fathers’ and grandfathers’ work. They don’t want to stay in Rural America. And they don’t want to work as hard as what they witnessed growing up. But some still share the same passion as the moms and dads and grandparents they watched who love the land and the job of feeding people.
