The Pine Bloom Plantation, also known as Pinebloom Plantation, is a historic site in Newton, Georgia. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 9, 1990. It is located on Tarva Road and County Route 122, 3/4 of a mile south of the Baker County, Georgia/ Dougherty County, Georgia line in Baker County. The site includes Greek Revival architecture, is associated with Gov. Alfred Holt Colquitt, and dates to about 1850.[1][2] The plantation was purchased by billionaire John M.
