CHS Country Operations began their annual CHS Harvest for Hunger food campaign in 2011. CHS in Brandon & Corson (formerly Eastern Farmers Coop and Harvest States) have participated in this campaign since its beginning. The agronomy plant in Garretson is a part of the CHS Brandon business unit. This unit includes 16 grain facilities, 10 agronomy plants, 17 LP bulk plants and 2 feed mills. It employs 260 full time and 110 seasonal people.
Every March, CHS employees have collected food, grain and monetary donations.
Last March, a raffle was held to give away a smoker pellet grill, a Smart TV, a Blackstone Griddle, Cenex gas cards and four ½ processed hogs.
Thanks to the tremendous efforts of the employees from CHS Brandon, CHS National Accounts, CHS Nutrition in Corson, Sioux Falls & Marshall, over $46,000 was raised.
