Jimmy Carter's family farm to be preserved and opened to the public The family farm where President Jimmy Carter tended peanuts, corn and sugarcane as a boy and returned throughout his life will be preserved and opened to the public. Preservation group The Conservation Fund says that it has acquired the farm as part of a 2,458-acre purchase just outside Plains, Georgia, the 39th president’s hometown. The fund says Carter spent his youth exploring the woods around the farm and returned many times as an adult to walk with his wife Rosalynn and hunt.

It will eventually transfer to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
