Discovering Dothan, the Peanut Capital of the World
Fueled by the Best Family Restaurant in Town
Fun fact: Dothan is known as the Peanut Capital of the World and produces over 65% of all peanuts in the United States!

Once you’ve snapped a few selfies with peanut Elvis (“thank you, thank you very much”), you can catch the Dothan Downtown Tour and check out it’s famous murals or take a very short walk down the World’s Smallest City Block.
Here are a few other charming stops:
- Folklore Brewing & Meadery
