Take a walk back through the history of logging in this part of the country and how it helps reduce our dependence on other fuel sources. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit here and the Heritage center. The train is really cool as is the oldest surviving house on display.

Very educational! Lots of displays with plenty of information about forestry and how trees are used to make every day items. It was very clean! Stuckie was definitely the main reason we went, but my family enjoyed exploring both floors. Plus, there are several outside activities and a large playground. There are several animal displays with real taxidermied animals that show different types of wildlife in different areas of the South. Several of the displays are interactive. There is wheelchair access at the entrance and to get to the outdoor areas. There is a public restroom, which was very clean. There is also a gift shop.Entry for our family of five would have been $14 (5 & under get in free) but we bought a one year family pass for $30.

Great place to learn of the history of GA ️

This is a museum showing visitors how we manage our forests, and how we actually grow more timber than we harvest in the great state of Georgia. It was very refreshing to see something positive in todays environment. It is for adults, but it has a great deal of items that teach children about conservation.

Lots of forrest related information.Definitely a one of a kind special little musuem. Good place to take your kids let them explore the interactive exhibits. Stop and see Stuckey the dog!

This is a local museum of the forestry industry in Georgia. It has never really received recognition for its value. It struggles to continue to exist and would not if it wasnt for individual donors like my family. It could be a great educational tool for the whole state school system and a great promotional tool for every aspect of the forest industry, yet to my knowledge it receives no funding; indeed, it seems to be largely ignored. What a waste. I have visited here numerous times and have yet to experience the whole offering. I bring my grandkids here every chance I get. There are displays of every part of the forest industry, videos, interactive displays, much history---and even a mummified dog in a hollow tree. Two floors of information that will take all day to see. And then there are numerous activities outside to enjoy, plus a short pleasant hiking trail, a retired fire observation tower, an amphitheater, and plenty of picnic area. Dont forget to climb in the locomotive and learn its role in the forest industry.

I would love to visit, but their website link only leads to Viagra ads

SOUTHERN FOREST WORLD.....Dedicated Museum detailing mans forestry, past + present, cutting down those large Oxygen making plants, that also try to absorb Carbon Dioxide, of which their is far too much in the present day Earths Atmosphere......An unfortunate scenario of the 1960s features as the main exhibit, found by chance, with details of exactly what happened + why preservation took place......Remember, You will never look at trees the same way again......Education from the past + present for the future preservation of Trees + Planet Earth........Plant a Tree Today....... SOUTHERN FOREST WORLD......

We took two classes of Special Education students. They loved it! They did not want to leave. Thank you ladies for treating us like we were your own family.

Their never open when I have an opportunity to go.

Great little surprise inside. Definitely worth the stop.

A very informative little museum about forestry in Georgia. Dont miss the mummified dog! It takes about an hour to fully explore this place.
