Local photographer snaps featured image in the 2026 Georgia Peanut Calendar
The Georgia Peanut Commission hosted a photo contest throughout 2025 to fill the pages of its 2026 Georgia Peanut Calendar. Peanut farmers and industry representatives from across Georgia were encouraged to submit their best, high-resolution photo from the farm for a chance to feature the photo in the 2026 calendar.
Nearly 100 entries were submitted from across the peanut belt and only twelve were selected as a monthly feature. Photos were selected based on quality, originality and diversity in the field. Selected for the month of December was a picturesque photo of a peanut field illuminated by rays of the sun taken by Seminole County’s Tosha Womble.
The twelve calendar winners are as follows: January – Whitney Sheppard, Screven County; February – Brandon Walker, Jenkins County; March – Jamie Freeman, Miller County; April – Corey Cotton, Terrell County; May – Kaelyn Morgan, Tift County; June – Faith Railey, Berrien County; July – Faith Railey, Berrien County; August – Holli Sapp, Mitchell County; September – Jamie Freeman, Miller County; October – Beka Wilkes, Lee County; November – Whitney Sheppard, Screven County; and December – Tosha Womble, Seminole County.
Photo submissions will be used in promotional materials produced by GPC throughout the year. All Georgia peanut farmers with a mailing address on file with GPC will receive a copy in the mail. For more information on GPC programs and to view the winning photos, visit www.gapeanuts.com.
