Meet John
John is a conservative outsider and lifelong Tennessean. He is raising his family on the Generational Rose family farm because Tennessee is his home.
In fact, John is the 8th generation to live and farm in the adjoining Temperance Hall and Lancaster communities in Dekalb and Smith Counties. He started working on the farm as a kid and was raised in nearby Cookeville. John graduated from Cookeville High School and continued his education at Tennessee Tech University, home of the Golden Eagles. He studied agriculture at Tech, an easy choice for him since farming has always been a passion of his.
White County has always shown me a warm welcome, even when I first hit the campaign trail for Congress. Thank you for an incredible #TNTrueTour stop! I’m grateful for the ideas you shared and the chance to discuss how we can work together to make White County an even better place to work and raise a family.
As the only major candidate in the Republican primary for Governor who was born and raised in Tennessee, you can bet I will never roll over to foreign or out of state interests. It's Tennessee First for me.
I was honored to join Gov. Bill Lee’s America 250 Tour in Van Buren County. Alongside some of our agriculture industry’s finest advocates and proud Tennesseans, we celebrated the history, heritage, and values that make America exceptional. Generations have shed blood to defend this nation, and we remain committed to preserving the traditional values it was founded on—especially in Tennessee.
