About Boston

Tucked away in Thomas County, Boston is a quiet South Georgia town with plenty of historic character. It is actually one of the smallest communities in the country with its own Carnegie library, which is still welcoming readers more than a century after opening. The town is also well known for the Dillon Candy Company, where traditional copper kettles still churn out batches of handmade pecan treats. Between its preserved downtown buildings and easygoing pace, Boston offers a peaceful, friendly home base just minutes from Thomasville.
