Rooted in Georgia dirt, heavy iron, and authentic hospitality.

This site and agricultural enterprise are operated by Autonfarms, trading publicly at autonfarms.com under the trade name AUTON FARMS. We are an owner-operated agricultural business enterprise combining commercial land maintenance, machinery transport, and countryside lodging.

Our commercial operations are based in Lavonia, Franklin County, Georgia, with our physical headquarters and active shop bay located at 1400 ROPER RD., LAVONIA, GA 30553, LAVONIA, GA, United States. Auton Farms was established in 2020 on rural acreage along Roper Road. We are not an absentee corporate holding group or an anonymous booking intermediary; every inquiry, tractor dispatch, and guest stay is directed on-site by our active operational crew.

Our physical operations center sits at 1400 ROPER RD., LAVONIA, GA 30553, LAVONIA, GA, United States. This acreage encompasses our equipment maintenance bays, tractor staging apron, livestock corrals, and the private guest quarters of Shiloh Farm.

Franklin County's rolling topography and red clay soil demand equipment built to industrial tolerances. Our central location minutes from Interstate 85 enables timely machinery mobilization across Lavonia, Carnesville, Royston, Toccoa, and neighboring communities throughout northeast Georgia.

The owner and our core farm operations crew handle all client work personally. We do not subcontract tractor jobs to outside third parties, and we do not list our retreat lodging on speculative booking brokerages.

This direct hands-on model guarantees accountability:

• Mechanical Responsibility: The person operating the tractor is the same person who checked the fluid levels, greased the driveline slip-clutch, and torqued the rotary cutter blades in our workshop.
• Property Respect: We scout boundaries on foot, identify concealed granite stones or discarded fencing wire, and maintain strict deck height control to protect client pastures from scalping.
• Direct Dialogue: Dispatch schedules and price evaluations are discussed directly with the farm operator, eliminating administrative confusion and middleman fees.

Auton Farms provides specific, verifiable agricultural and lodging services across Lavonia and surrounding Franklin County, Georgia. What our business actually does includes:

• Heavy Tractor Pasture Rotary Mowing: Commercial pasture clearing, brush hogging, and weed reclamation utilizing a 50-horsepower 4WD diesel utility tractor fitted with R-1 agricultural lug tires and a 6-foot heavy-duty rotary cutter capable of mulching heavy brush and saplings up to two inches in diameter. Base rates start at $45.00 per acre with a mandatory 2-acre minimum dispatch.
• Equipment & Cargo Trailer Haulage: Tandem-axle trailer transport with an 18-foot heavy channel steel deck, twin Dexter 3,500-lb axles, 4-wheel electric brakes, and a rated Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 7,000 pounds, billed at $95.00 dispatch plus $2.85 per loaded mile.
• Livestock Corral & Fence-Line Clearing: Precision perimeter trimming and vegetation clearing along livestock fence lines, barn perimeters, and access lanes at $65.00 per hour.
• Shiloh Farm Countryside Retreat: Private countryside lodging quarters on active rural Georgia farmland hosting 2 to 6 guests for 1 to 2 nights at $160.00 per night, booked 7 to 30 days in advance.

The Workmanship Guarantee: For all pasture mowing and brush hogging, we walk the parcel with the owner immediately upon completion. If any flagged area was missed or cut above the agreed deck height, we drop the rotary cutter and re-cut the parcel before our tractor is chained to the transport trailer. No additional charge.

Shiloh Farm offers private countryside lodging for small groups seeking authentic rest on active rural Georgia farmland. Accommodations host 2 to 6 guests for 1 to 2 nights.

We intentionally structure our stays around quiet enjoyment and agricultural reality rather than commercial resort theatrics. Guests enjoy covered timber porches with rocking chairs overlooking rolling pastures, evening fire pits, and guided farm walks. All stays require advance booking of 7 to 30 days so ongoing field tractor dispatches and guest preparations do not conflict.

Nothing on autonfarms.com is sold through an automated shopping cart. We take no payments online, store no credit card numbers, and require no user passwords or login accounts.

Agricultural work cannot be responsibly quoted with an automated buy button. Hidden slope angles, briar density, soil moisture, and buried obstacles alter what a field job actually demands. Our site provides transparent baseline rates ($45/acre base mowing, $95 + $2.85/loaded mile haulage, $65/hr fence clearing, and $160/night retreat lodging) and an interactive acreage estimator to give clients clear expectations before scheduling a formal field evaluation.
