Who We Are
Establishing Our Presence in the Seed and Feed Industry
1983
Southern Seed & Feed was founded in 1983 by Roger and Colleen Koehn as a portable seed cleaning business. We traveled from farm to farm, cleaning soybeans and other seeds for local farmers. As the farming industry changed, we did less seed cleaning and began transitioning to supplying corn and grains for our local farmers.
1987
In 1987, Southern Seed & Feed acquired its first wholesale customer, Planter's Supply, a customer we still do business with today.
2001
In 2001, after experiencing the loss of the mill due to a fire, Southern Seed & Feed seized the unexpected opportunity and rebuilt a larger, cutting-edge facility. The company continued to grow.
2014
Around 2014, state-of-the-art automation is added supply the growing demand. This improvement allows for more significant milling and cleaning capacity.
2021
In 2021, the business and family suffered the loss of our founder, leader, and father, Roger Koehn. Roger was passionate about Southern Seed & Feed and ran the family-owned business for 38 years.
2022
We continued to grow under the leadership of Roger's son, Seth. Seth is supported by his wife, Karla, and their four children. Katie Koehn continues to serve in the company, where she specializes in sales and marketing.
2023
We purchased a commercial property that provides much needed warehouse space and room for growth.
Today
With over 40 years of experience behind us, Southern Seed & Feed continues to pursue new opportunities. As we look forward to the future, we are excited to continue to offering superior seed and feed products to retail farm stores and other distributors in the Southeast.
