Advantages
Benefits of Young Farmers
Responsibility & Respect
Kids involved in agriculture are taught responsibility in so many different ways. Chores are a daily part of life and everyone has to do their part of it. They are also working around different equipment and livestock. Having respect for them and adults helping them to learn is super important.
Communication & Decisions
At a farmers market you get to talk to potential buyers and it helps to build strong communication skills that will benefit the kid earlier on. Also decision making is a great benefit. Kids involved in agriculture will have to make many different decisions. They will see and understand the importance of making decision, and the consequences.
Financial Management
Financial records are a required part of being a farmer: knowing how much the seeds itself cost, how much the feed and other bills were. Kids involved in agriculture are raised from an early age to understand that budgeting and financial planning is integral to a successful business.

The Farmers
Meet
The Young Farmers,
McCorey & Bentley
McCorey Humphres started MSB Produce back in 2017, when he at the age of 11 years old, wanted to go to the farmers market in Colombus, Mississippi to sell blueberries from his parents backyard. After 15 very intense and busy minutes he sold out of all of his blueberries – he was super excited and wanted to do more.
So the year after his big success, the family decided to expand their garden to grow more vegetables, so McCorey could attend to the local farmers markets with a much bigger variety of fresh food. His parents were very supportive and they still are. Especially his dad would help him with his little entrepreneur project.
This year he also had great success and he was very hooked by it. The taste of success made him more excited and he was all about it. He even introduced and involved his smaller brother, Bentley Humphres, to help him at the age of 6 years old.
When McCorey stopped 2 years ago, his sweet little brother took over the business and today he is doing it together with his dad, Shann Humphres. 2023 is Bentley’s third year of doing it by himself and he loves it just as much as his bigger brother did. Bentley is just 10 years old and the community loves him. He is a very popular gentleman at both the Millport and Vernon Farmers markets that he attends.
