Laura, Greg, Donald, Ellen and Glenn Lee Chase
Georgia Peanut Tour attendees were able to see harvest first-hand at the Chase family farm in Macon County, Georgia. Glenn Lee Chase started digging peanuts where everyone on the tour could see how peanuts are harvested. The Chase family uses GPS to help guide the digger through the field and minimize loss at digging. The family operation also consists of sweet corn, field corn, and broiler houses. Donald represents farmers in his area as a board member of the Georgia Peanut Commission. The farm is a family operation of Glenn Lee & Ellen Chase and their son Donald, his wife, Michelle, and their three kids, Marilee, Laura and Greg.
