TCGA’s ‘GINNER OF THE YEAR’

TCGA's 'GINNER OF THE YEAR'

Dennis Flowers...Sudan, Texas

When someone wins the Texas Cotton Ginners Association's "Ginner of the Year" award, it figures that a rich family tradition is involved.

Such is the case with this year's winner – Dennis Flowers, general manager of the Sudan Farmers Cooperative Gin in Sudan, Texas. His father Clyde and grandfather were also a part of the cotton business.

Now Dennis' son Garrett is part of the industry as manager of nearby Spade Cooperative Gin. Four generations of the Flowers' family have had their roots in cotton, and that suits everybody fine.
