South Carolina Farm Bureau breaks ground in Anderson on grain elevator expansion
ANDERSON, S.C. (FOX Carolina) – The South Carolina Farm Bureau (SCFB) is breaking ground on a multimillion-dollar expansion project in Anderson that should double grain storage capacity and add new office and warehouse space.
The groundbreaking will commence Friday, May 31 at 10:30 a.m. at the SCFB grain elevator on 1306 Whitehall Rd. in Anderson County.
This SCFB grain elevator is the only grain elevator within a 100-mile radius. The expansion will increase its capacity to better serve farmers.
The expansion project is funded by the Growing Agribusiness fund administered by the SC Department of Agriculture.
The market value of agricultural products sold in Anderson County in 2022 was $84.3 million. That number was a 12% increase since 2017.
