Six small towns are getting an HGTV makeover and one of them resides in the Peach State.

Thomaston, Georgia, was selected with five other cities for the first season of "Home Town Kickstart," which will team "Home Town" hosts Ben and Erin Napier along with PEOPLE Magazine to highlight the town and its residents. Along with Thomaston are: Buffalo, Wyoming; Cornwall, New York; Winslow, Arizona; LaGrange, Kentucky; and Minden, Louisiana.

Here's what to know about the program:

What is HGTV Home Town Kickstart?

The HGTV series will encompass three linear and streaming shows — the original flagship series, "Home Town," shot in Laurel, MS; "Home Town Takeover," which saw the Napiers and crew renovate an entire town in Wetumpka, Alabama, and now the all-new series "Home Town Kickstart" along with special episodes, two exclusive digital companion series, "Erin'spired" and "Talkin' Shop," and the Discovery+ original series, "Home Town: Ben's Workshop."

During "Home Town Kickstart," HGTV will do three things for each selected town: refresh the home of a local hero, give a small business an upgrade and invigorate a public space that will forever change the lives of everyone in the town. In addition, PEOPLE Magazine will share the unique stories of each town and its most intriguing people.

"Erin and I have renovated more than 80 homes in Laurel for Home Town and we've seen how these improvements change a community for the better," Ben Napier said. "Now, with help from HGTV, we're going to continue what we started and help more small towns across the country."

What HGTV personalities will be on the show?

Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent ("The Nate and Jeremiah Home Project"); Ty Pennington ("Rock the Block"); Jasmine Roth ("Help! I Wrecked My House"); and Alison Victoria ("Windy City Rehab") are among the network's popular experts who, supported by Home Town stars Ben and Erin Napier, will lead three projects in each town.
