Case Farms this week awarded $8,000 in scholarships to four children of Case Farms’ employees through the J. Leroy Cook Memorial Scholarship Program. 

Established in 2005 by Case Farms founder Thomas Shelton, the J. Leroy Cook Memorial Scholarship Program honors long-time Case Farms’ employee Leroy Cook, a former senior vice president of operations at the company.
