A residential development named “Farm Community,” designed by Preston & Associates and Village Habitat Design, received a sustainable design award from the Georgia Chapter of The American Institute of Architects.

The design calls for over 90% of the 390-acre (160 ha) site to be protected by permanent conservation easements. Much of this land will continue to be operated as a family farm. Plans for the remaining land include 100 homes at a range of prices, a neighborhood commerce center, a public retail center, and a retreat center.
