MOULTRIE, Ga. — The 100 Mile Peanut Pickin’ Regional Yard Sale will be held 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13. The route will follow Highway 41 from Unadilla down to Cordele then Hwy 33 to Sylvester and loop through downtown Moultrie and will follow 133 through Berlin, Morven and Quitman.  

“The 100 Mile Peanut Pickin’ Yard Sale is a tourism effort to promote our region and an opportunity to showcase our town to visitors who may purchase a home or start a business,” said Tommie Beth Willis, president of the Moultrie-Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce. “Vendors will be featuring everything from antiques, to local Georgia grown/Georgia made items and yard sale items.”

Yard sale sites will range from large multi-organization sites to individual sites along the route, Willis said. “Official Vendor” signs will identify each official 100 Mile Peanut Pickin’ Yard Sale site.

There will be a new location for vendors in Moultrie this year: The side parking lot at the City of Moultrie Utilities Department, 2701 First Ave. S.E. (directly across the street from the Dairy Queen).

“The bargain shopping is the main attraction, but visitors are also able to enjoy exploring charming towns and communities, the scenic countryside, famous historic sites, delicious regional cuisine and welcoming Southern hospitality,” Willis said. “This is a great opportunity to promote Moultrie-Colquitt County to the bargain hunters that will be visiting our area.”

The chamber is looking for church groups, clubs and individuals who would like to participate in the Annual 100 Mile Peanut Pickin’ Yard Sale. Please contact Jennifer Jarvis at the Moultrie-Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce (229) 985-2131. Deadline for vendors at the Moultrie location has been extended to 3 p.m. Friday, Oct. 5.
