Could this be cow parsley? I’m fairly sure hogweed in GA is rare or nonexistent, though you could reach out to the Center for Invasive Species at UGA? Perhaps they can give you a definitive answer.

Hogweeds do not have as “ferny” or fine textured leaf. Two interesting reads (since hogweed wasn’t part of my vocabulary):https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracleum_mantegazzianum and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracleum_sphondylium

Queen AnneÕs Lace has a hairy, completely green stem. Poison Hemlock is smooth, and has purple or black spots, or streaks on the stem. Compare here:http://newlifeonahomestead.com/wild-carrots-queen-annes-lace-and-deadly-hemlock/ “Queen AnneÕs Lace has a teeny tiny purple or crimson colored flower in the center of its blooms.”

Looks like queen anne’s lace. check for a smell like a carrot, and possible caterpillars. Queen anne’s lace is one of the host plants for the black swallowtail butterfly.
