Question

Lina Belle McCommons, a North Carolina citizen who formerly lived in Georgia, said the following about her younger days there: "We benefited in this area (Greene County, Georgia) because it was chosen for a number of the CCC camps — the army of young workers, who worked in forests and fields, stopping erosion. Some people said it was a waste of money. But it kept a lot of young fellows employed."

To which period of Georgia's history is she referring?
