Peanut
Photographer: Sandra Hughes
Taken: June 19, 2012
Caption: Peanut
Additional Description: Millions of Americans eat peanuts every day, but few can identify these botanical oddballs where they grow. Peanuts are not nuts like pecans, nor tubers like potatoes, but legumes, akin to soybeans. During Jimmy Carter's lifetime, peanuts changed from being just a local popular snack to the most important crop in South Georgia.
