GEORGIA FOLK AND FARM LIFE - Neighbors, we sure had a time in Garfield earlier this month. The food, the fellowship, the stories—it all reminded us why we do this. Georgia Folk and Farm Life isn’t just about gathering, it’s about keeping alive the traditions of faith, family, flag, and farm.
Now it’s time to look ahead to the next Georgia Folk and Farm Life Story & Song Revival, and we need your help to shape it.
This time, we’d like to host the Revival in a different setting—not outdoors, but in a theater or community center. This change means more room, better sound, and a true stage for your stories and songs. It also means rental fees and extra planning, so we’re working to professionalize our approach and make sure these events keep growing stronger.
Here’s How You Can Help
We’ve put together a short survey that will guide us as we plan:
Help us find the right storytellers and singers for the program
Vote on the best location for the next Revival
Let us know if you’d be willing to purchase a ticket to help offset costs and keep the tradition going
We’re also planning to include vendor spaces alongside the program, so this feels like a true Gathering—just with a new format. And yes, we’ll record it, just like we did in Garfield, so everyone can enjoy the stories and songs again.
Why Your Voice Matters
We want these Revivals to grow into a way of passing down the values that make rural Georgia strong, and they only work when the community comes together. By taking the survey, you’ll have a real hand in shaping the future of these events—bringing them closer to your hometown, choosing who you want to hear, and ensuring they stay affordable and welcoming.
👉 Take the short survey now—just a few minutes of your time will shape the future of GFFL!
With your help, the next Revival can be bigger, better, and full of the same heart that makes Georgia Folk and Farm Life so special.
With gratitude,Matt Jolley & Wade PeeblesGeorgia Folk and Farm Life
