Banks County

Homer, the county's only municipality, was incorporated in 1859 and was named after Homer Jackson, a prominent settler.

The northern boundary of Banks County is the Chattahoochee National Forest and much of the county is woodlands.

Banks County is the home of the World's Largest Easter Egg Hunt (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) hosted by Garrison Farms.

For over 110 years, the Sunday School Celebration, honoring Banks County's churches, has been held each July.
