John Nix
Soil and Water Conservation District Supervisor · Seat 4 4 · Alachua County
Source review: 2026-10-30Professional Background
John Nix is a fourth-generation farmer whose summit speaker biography describes grass-fed beef production, an engineering degree from Kansas State University and more than 30 years at Florida Power & Light as a senior engineer before retirement. The biography identifies later energy-conservation work for Alachua County Public Schools. A county-hosted EMPOWER application independently lists him in that schools role and as a NAACP Environmental and Climate Justice Committee contact. The county’s April 2022 release names him the committee’s project lead. These sources do not give graduation or retirement dates.
