Wilcox County

The Ocmulgee River forms the county's eastern boundary. Guided wild boar hunts are available along its banks.

Wilcox is primarily an agricultural community. It is the state's second largest producer of watermelons and among the top producers of cantaloupe. Other products include peanuts, cotton, broilers, and timber.

The Ocmulgee Wild Hog Festival is held in Abbeville each May. Visitors enjoy big plates of barbeque, a womanless beauty pageant, arts and crafts, a hog baying contest, and displays of wild boars.
