Gracie Snoddy, a high school junior from Logan County Kentucky started JKL Pinto Beans in 2020 as her SAE project for FFA. With guidance from local farmers and family friends across the country, she raised the first known crop of pinto beans in Kentucky — two full acres on the family farm.

Browning’s Country Ham is happy to have the opportunity to work with such an inspiring, young Kentucky agricultural leader, and we hope you will enjoy her beans cooked with our ham hocks and served with cornbread as much as we do.
