Mitchell County, Georgia

Mitchell County is nestled in southwest Georgia. It preserves its agricultural heritage, including pecan orchards and peanut fields. The Flint River forms the county’s western border.
Camilla is the county seat. Here, you’ll find old Southern grace and modern practicality. It also holds the annual Gnat Days festival for the county’s tiny winged residents.
Handshakes still seal deals here and neighbors know each other by name. The county doesn’t lay its cards on the table all at once. You really have to dig a little to uncover what it’s all about.
