Silos

These 6 silos in Augusta  are at the main entrance into Phinizey Swamp. Phinizy Swamp Nature Park for Water Sciences is a 1,100-acre nature park in Augusta, Georgia. The park contains wetlands and woodlands and has a campus for water research and environmental education, which includes a visitor center.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phinizy_Swamp_Nature_Park Much of what is now the Phinizy Swamp Nature Park was extensively farmed as well as used for cattle pasture. Gracewood, a state-run mental health institution, operated a beef farm in this area from the 1950’s to 1973 and used patients as farmhands. It was nicknamed the “swamp farm”.https://phinizycenter.org/our-history/
