Bacon County was created
in 1914 from parts of Appling, Pierce, and Ware counties. Georgia's
149th county was named for Senator Augustus O. Bacon, a four-term U.S.
Senator who died in office.
Alma is the only
incorporated municipality in Bacon County. Alma's name is an acronym
composed from the first letters in the names of Georgia's four state
capitals: Augusta, Louisville, Milledgeville, and Atlanta.
The Blueberry Festival
is held annually during the summer, celebrating Bacon County's large
blueberry industry.
