Jimmy Carter National Historic Site
Plains, Georgia

	The restoration of the Jimmy Carter Boyhood Farm was the product of a team of landscape architects, architects, interpretive planners, exhibit designers, engineers and resource specialists. The project tells the story of how the 39th President was influenced on the rural southern farm.
	Restoring the farm to its circa 1937 condition meant not only recreating the physical appearance of the farm, but also restoring the function of the farm's features.
	Of the original 108-acre Carter Farm, the National Park Service retains 17 acres. The Denver Service Center received the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) Merit Award for the site, as well as the ASLA Colorado Chapter award for Land Stewardship.
	'Living history' educational programs explain the realities of pre-electrical farm life that included a blacksmith shop, milking shed, buggy shed and hand crank water well.
