Bells Bend Community Farms Sprout Up
Local Blogger Tracks Their Progress
Several community farms have been established this spring throughout Bells Bend and Scottsboro.  Residents are encouraged to get involved and take advantage of the rich soils and community atmosphere at each of the beautiful sites.

Brenda Butka has started a blog about her agricultural experiences at one of sites -Sulphur Creek Farm on Old Hickory, just north of Ashland City Highway.  We encourage everyone to enjoy her writing by visiting the website:

Our Mission:

To promote and protect the rural character of the Beaman Park to Bells Bend Corridor by establishing an outdoor recreational, agricultural and residential conservation district that serves as a county, state and regional planning model for open space preservation.

As Nashville's urban growth has spread in all directions, the Beaman Park to Bells Bend Corridor has managed to retain a rural landscape that is in many ways unchanged from the time of its settlement in the nineteenth century.

Like the far-sighted thinking in our own city that produced Shelby, Centennial and the Warner Parks, this last remaining area of working farms, upland trails, waterways, and wildlife ought to be saved - not only for the enjoyment of future generations, but also for the well-rounded planning of a great, livable city.
