It was an honor to welcome the Ambassador of Hungary to the United States to Haralson County yesterday. Our shared history dates back to the late 1800s, when Hungarian immigrants established the community of Budapest, named after Hungary’s capital, and planted vineyards across the surrounding hillsides. Their winemaking legacy continues today through Dogwood Hills Farm and Winery in Tallapoosa. Thank you, Ambassador, for joining us as we honored this important heritage here in Georgia’s House District 18.
