The National Register of Historic Places is the official list of the Nation's historic places worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service's National Register of Historic Places is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America's historic and archeological resources. Properties qualifying for listing on the National Register are automatically added to the Georgia Register.  

Whether residential or commercial, listed properties qualify for various historic preservation tax credits when available. 

The Georgia Centennial Farm Program was developed in 1993 to distinguish family farms that have contributed to preserving Georgia's agricultural history by maintaining working farms for more than 100 years. The program has recognized over 560 farms around the state. It is administered by the Historic Preservation Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources in a partnership with the Georgia Farm Bureau Federation; Georgia Department of Agriculture; Georgia Forestry Commission; the Georgia National Fairgrounds and Agricenter, and Georgia EMC. Deadline for applications is May 1st.

Relic Pine can conduct preliminary technical evaluations and building assessments to determine the potential for eligibility. For qualifying properties our team will conduct the necessary research, prepare supplementary documentation, and submit the completed document to the state for technical review and final evaluation.

Cost to prepare applications for the National Register are based on the square footage of the primary building or structure. For Centennial Farm applications a flat fee is charged.
