A melanin-hue mountain town… Oh, a girl can dream! Let me know if you know any realtors that specialize in “rural farmland.” Thank you. #georgia #atlanta #blackhomesteaders

@dannyjones547 For some reason, you keep going North of I 20 and expect something different. South Fulton, Henry County, Douglas. North Georgia is beautiful and there are some good people, but my pattern recognition brands most as not good people.

@elinda.taylor I’m interested in this as well. This is exactly what I want.

@about2takeoff Not mountain, but I think that @upendoestatesfarm is in Lovejoy. She's got a lotta land.

@cassaundragraves I live in North Georgia, and I really wish more of us would move out this way. 😢 I’m looking for land too, but I’ll be honest… thinking about my safety sometimes makes me hesitant. What really caught my attention while researching is learning how much land in this area was once owned and farmed by Black families. That history made me look at this whole area differently. I would love to see more of us reclaiming space, buying land, building, farming, and creating community out this way.

@clh5 I went to the restroom at a farmer’s market in Ellijay & a white woman refused to go in the stall after me when she saw I was Black. Nearby Chatsworth, I was almost run off the road – purposefully – by a white man in an F-250 after leaving a wedding. That’s Marjorie Taylor Greene’s constituency up there & they are unwell. Consider looking south of Atlanta.

@thatgalstorme I can’t recall the county but up there near Brasstown Bald.

@lovelaquoia Anything after McDonough is a NO GO.

@theshinebar Douglasville ❤️ full of beautiful land out here in West Georgia

@drink.ink Holy shit - that is atrocious! Have you looked in Oconee? About an hour outside of Atlanta, but Athens is close and the land is beautiful

@barbequeflavoredchips I would love for there to be a Black mountain city ❤️

@dae.nicole__ South Fulton, Fairburn, palmetto, Fayetteville, Douglasville areas

@jjanney Rydal, GA. You can see the mountains from there. Right next to Cartersville. It’s north of ATL. Which makes it easier to get out of GA. Lol My brother just built there. It’s beautiful.

@atlerica Somewhere near or past Law Roach’s estate would be great, if you can talk with a realtor or someone in the know to get a gist of where it is. It is said to be many acres and “in the Atlanta area.” https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2024/09/23/law-roach-profile-stylist-zendaya
