Burts Farms
This past weekend, The Hiking Buddy visited Burt's Farm. For me and my family, The Burt’s Farm hay ride has become just as much of a tradition of every fall. And of course choosing and picking the best pumpkins. So stop by at Burt's Farm, have fun and get your pumpkins.
But here is some history behind this place, that you may dont know:
The story of Burt’s Farm actually begins way back in the 1800’s when the patriarch of the family, John Crane, moved from South Carolina and bought the property where the farm is presently located. The property also included what is now Amicalola Falls State Park. The property where the state park is located today was confiscated from Bartley Crane in the late 1800’s by the federal government. Bartley owned a liquor still, but failed to pay taxes on the whiskey he made and sold.
Bartley decided to open a country store that would one day be run by his son Hunt Crane. This store was passed from generation to generation. Hunt’s grandson grew up watching his father and grandfather sell produce at the same country store his great grandfather sold goods from as well. Hunt’s grandson went on to be the founder and owner of Burt’s Farm, Johnny Burt.
In 1972, Johnny and Kathy Burt started growing pumpkins. Johnny and Kathy lived at the entrance of Amicalola Falls, making it the perfect location to sell their pumpkins. The combination of the beautiful scenery and crisp cool mountain air brought people by the thousands to the mountains of North Georgia.
