Congratulations to Brad O'Neal of South Carolina on being named the 2023 South Carolina Sunbelt Ag Expo Southeastern Farmer of the Year.

When O’Neal started working full time at Coosaw Farms, it consisted of 1400 acres (745 rented and 655 owned) and has grown over the last 23 years to a total of 3300 acres (300 rented and 3000 owned). There are two local operations with two primary crops: watermelon and blueberries. Red seeded, red and yellow seedless, and red mini-seedless watermelons as well as organic blueberries are grown on the St. Helena Island farm, while the Fairfax farm grows conventional blueberries, watermelons, blackberries (the third season for this relative newcomer), field corn, cotton, and sorghum.
