Visit aFarm

Sure, farms are fewer and farther between than they used to be in Forsyth County, but several of the ones left are more family-friendly than ever.

Looking to pick fruit in the spring or pumpkin in the fall? Go to Warbington Farms, where there’s also a corn maze, petting zoo and a family fun park. Never cut down your own Christmas tree?

Then head to Bottoms Tree Farm or Kinsey Family Farm where you can chop down the tree of your choosing, as well go on a hayride or see a variety of farm animals. Each offer plenty for families to do year-round.

Jefferson CITY OF

Jefferson, a 200 plus year old community, is located in Northeast Georgia. A picturesque community set among the gently rolling hills in the piedmont region. The landscape is dotted with small farms and lakes. Like many small towns in the south, we have gradually made the transition from primarily agriculture, to a balance of commercial and industrial businesses. Most people move to Jefferson for economic opportunity, its small town atmosphere, acceptance of newcomers and wholesome environment for raising a family. The City's leadership is working to maintain Jefferson's small town character while strongly encouraging the development of a diverse economy that employs the growing local workforce.
