Render Plantation 15380 Roosevelt Hwy , Greenville , GA | Meriwether County, GA

Render Plantation was founded in 1832 when James Render moved from Wilkes County, Georgia to Meriwether County. Here he founded a plantation that eventually grew to nearly 2,000 acres. The plantation produced cotton, corn, wheat, oats, and two varieties of potato. A dairy located on the property produced milk and butter. James Render proved to be a prudent farmer and businessman. His farm survived the upheaval of the Civil War and reconstruction, lasting well into the 20th century. In fact, the plantation house and some of the land remained in the Render family until the 1960s.
