Levi Davis has been named the new coordinator for the Georgia Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ranchers (YF&R) program, and Heather King will take on the new position of Women’s Leadership Coordinator.

“Heather and Levi are passionate, outstanding leaders, and we’re proud to have them in these new roles,” said GFB President Tom McCall. “They’ve represented Georgia Farm Bureau well in their work as district federation managers, and we’re confident they will be outstanding stewards for our Women’s Leadership and Young Farmers and Ranchers programs.”

Davis has worked as the GFB 8th District Federation Manager since 2022. Prior to that he worked in the GFB claims department. Davis, his wife, Amy and their son, Wyatt, live in Cochran.

Davis is a Houston County native and attended Veterans High School. As a youth he helped on the family beef cattle farm. He was active in FFA and served as FFA state vice president in the 2013-2014 school year. Davis is a graduate of the University of Georgia College of Agricultural & Environmental Sciences, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in agribusiness. He also has an associate degree in agribusiness from Northeast Oklahoma A&M.

Davis and King succeed Breanna Berry, who resigned in August after her husband took a job in Tennessee.

 

King has worked as the GFB 6th District Federation Manager since 2018.

Prior to joining the GFB staff, King served as the education program specialist at the Camp John Hope FFA-FCCLA Center in Fort Valley.

A native of Stephens County, she grew up on a poultry farm operated by her grandparents and her late father.
