AROUND TOWN: Georgia's new agriculture commissioner is a Snellville resident

The Blue Wave that washed through statewide offices and made history last week included a Gwinnett County connection. Georgia’s new Agriculture Commissioner, Katherine Juhan-Arnold, is a Snellville resident who founded Baby Katie’s Pharm and Kitchen. She defeated Republican incumbent Agiculture Commissioner Tyler Harper in last week’s elections and will be the first Black woman to hold the office. “The campaign may be over, but our work is just beginning,” Juhan-Arnold said after her victory. “We’re going to protect our farmers, strengthen our communities, stand up for consumers, protect our animals, steady our resources and build an Agriculture Department that works for every Georgian.” Baby Katie’s Pharm and Kitchen was set up to operate as a nonprofit farm to help low income families have access to fresh fruit and vegetables. It also works with families through education to help them grow their own food. Juhan-Arnold ran on a “Grow Georgia” platform of supporting market access for Georgia farmers, investing in infrastructure such as broadband for farms, protecting farmland, addressing the rising cost to run a farm in Georgia, supporting farm-to-school programs and regional food hubs, expanding international markets for Georgia-grown products and ensuring Georgia’s poultry and livestock supplies remain healthy so

Lake Lanier Sinks to Lowest Level in Nearly a Decade, Boat Ramps Shut Down

Lake Lanier has dropped to its lowest water level in nearly a decade, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says it has no choice but to keep releasing water through Buford Dam even as the lake gets almost no rain to refill it. Atlanta relies on Lake Lanier for drinking water, and with the region stuck in drought, officials have already begun shutting down boat ramps and warning paddlers and boaters to watch for hazards that are normally hidden underwater.
