Kristin started working for SFG in 2013 in front counter sales, later progressing to the Senior Office Manager position in Knoxville. Her favorite time of the year is harvest, working with grain customers to best help them with extended hours and to grow the grain business.

Kristin grew up in Knoxville, IA. She enjoyed playing volleyball throughout high school as well as playing for William Penn College.

In 2018, she joined the Smith family, marrying Kyle Smith. They have 4 children that keep them busy when they aren't at work. They enjoy getting them into as many sports as possible as well as taking their annual trips to Florida.
 

Mark White has been involved in agriculture his entire life. He was born and raised on a farm in Lucas County. He began farming right out of high school and farmed full time for 20 years until he took a sales job for the Chariton Farmers Coop.

In 2005 he came to work for Smith Fertilizer and Grain as an agronomist. Two years later he was moved into the home office and began working in administration. This included managing the Knoxville location and being the primary truck dispatcher. A year later he also became the grain merchandiser for SFG. Mark attends annual marketing seminars and reads several daily grain articles to keep informed on the grain markets.

He enjoys the opportunity to work with our many grain customers. He continues to farm part time which allows him to experience the same ups and downs that our customers feel. Mark and his wife Rhonda have two grown children and two grandchildren.
