Grist Mill, Circa 1895, Fort Valley

This structure, built as a grist mill around 1895, has most recently been known as the Jolly Nut Company. Established in 1924, it’s one of the oldest specialty produce businesses in the area.

Update: The Meyer family, who owned the Jolly Nut Company since the 1940s, closed the business in 2014. It was an important landmark and is greatly missed. The building remains.

    Hey Brian. Were you in Ft. Valley this weekend? I was over there for the Georgia Barbecue Assoc. state championship. They sanction our Richland Pig Fest Nov. 9 – 10. Sorry we missed each other.
