Location

The Orchards of Two Pillars Farms are situated in the Upper Coastal Plains, in the heart of Central Georgia. This region is generally known as the beginning of Georgia’s most fertile and productive soils, benefiting from abundant rainfall and subsurface aquifers for irrigation.

Particularly, the area encompassing Houston County has been acknowledged as one of the premier locations in the world for pecan and peach production, with Georgia being the leading producer of pecans in the United States. In addition, this property is located in an area that has seen significant growth in the number of country homes and mini-farms.

Houston County includes the municipalities of Warner Robins, Centerville, Kathleen, Haynesville, Elko, and Henderson, with Perry as the county seat. The county has become a highly sought-after place to live, work, and play. Houston County is well-regarded for its high-quality education, healthcare facilities, progressive government, robust job market, and overall quality of life.

Perry’s motto, “Where Georgia Comes Together,” is well-deserved. Interstate I-75 runs north and south through the middle of Perry and west-central Houston County. U.S. Highways 341 and 41 intersect in Perry, while Georgia Highway 26 runs along the southern edge of Houston County and is within one mile of The Orchards of Two Pillars.

Access

The Orchards of Two Pillars Farms has excellent access from a county-maintained dirt road, Carr Road in Houston, and the paved East Flournoy Road.

The Carr Farm is divided by the county-maintained dirt Carr Road. The section north of this road is referred to as “North Carr” and boasts extensive frontage on Carr Road. Additionally, it has a graded and asphalt-milled road that runs through the center of the orchards and hardwood forest. The section south of Carr Road is known as “South Carr.” This area includes the 16-inch irrigation well established in 2008 with substantial renovation in 2021, and has frontage on Carr Road as well as approximately 700 feet of frontage on East Flournoy Road. The road frontage can be seen on the topo map below.

The South Carr Road Farm is equipped with three-phase power supplied through underground wiring to service the 16-inch irrigation well. This well services the entire Orchards of North & South Carr Road. Mid Georgia EMC provides the electricity for these properties.

Property Description

The Orchards consist of level to gently rolling farmland featuring Tifton, Dothan, Greenville, and Faceville loamy sand and clay soil types. These soils are among the most desirable for agriculture in Georgia and are particularly suited for Pecan Orchards. Since the purchase by the current owners in 2019, the farmland has been meticulously groomed and prepared for pecan orchards.

A 16-inch gravel-packed well, installed by Grosch Well Drilling (now known as GIC Water Systems) based in Dublin, GA, provides abundant subsurface water for irrigation. The well was originally installed in 2008 and underwent major renovations in 2021.

In January 2020, these properties were planted with two-year-old pecan trees of improved varieties. They have been exceptionally well-managed as young orchards and are expected to produce their second crop in 2026. Tree production is expected to increase significantly each year until the trees reach maturity. The typical productive life of a pecan orchard is 50 years or more, with some orchards lasting over 100 years.

The land’s value must also be taken into account. Houston County land has become highly sought after, particularly amid ongoing population growth and the increasing demand for residential and mini-farm properties. The location of The Orchards of Two Pillars Farms enhances the value of the land far beyond the high-quality farmland it contains, and this value will continue to rise, especially as available land decreases.

With ample road frontage, The Orchards could easily be divided into popular 20 to 40-acre mini-farms, which are very popular in South Houston County. Additionally, there are approximately 16 acres of beautiful hardwood forest on the northern part of the property, adding charm and aesthetic appeal to The North Carr Farm.
