The Sumralls
Tell us about your family.
We are Jeff (47) and Kimberly (34) Sumrall. Our children are James (7),
Morgan (5), both in school at Christ Covenant School in Ridgeland, and
Myers (3). Jeff, his brother, and his father, own Sumrall Farms, where they are
operators and producers of the land and crops. Jeff jokes that his hobby is
farming, and he enjoys sharing his passion for farming with his children. He
enjoys playing outside with them, whether it be playing sports or taking John
Deere Gator rides around the farm or going hunting. Jeff also enjoys working
on projects around the farm, like engineering and building gadgets that will
aid in the work they do around the farm. He also enjoys home improvement
projects, a recent example being a bathroom renovation in our farmhouse over
the first few months of the Covid quarantine in 2020. He can frequently be
seen with earbuds under his cap, listening to podcasts and an occasional book
while working.
Kimberly is a homemaker, and finds great joy in keeping their home
(mostly) clean and orderly. She maintains a sourdough starter and has made
sourdough bread for several years now, and it has earned the name “Mamma
Bread.” She is also a fan of podcasts and audiobooks, listening while she cleans
and cooks, but especially during her favorite hobby, sewing. She sews most of
the clothes her children wear to church and their dressy casual outfits, also
known to her children as “city clothes.” Kimberly says they look like ragamuffins
in their “farm clothes” though, and accepts any and all hand me downs for
that purpose. She turned this hobby into a (very) small business, Bushel and a
Peck Collection, that affords her the ability to sew and monogram for customers
on her own schedule. We also share some hobbies! We met at a gym and still
