Description
Tobacco Drying Barn by Debra Martz
A stop at mile marker 401 you find an old barn with tobacco leaves suspended from the rafters for drying. The Greenfield family owned and operated the farm until 1977 when the state of Tennessee purchased and deeded the land to the Natchez Trace Parkway.
The Natchez Trace is a National Parkway that is 444 miles from Natchez, MS to Nashville, TN. But you can travel it either direction and get on or off at many exits along the way. It's a beautiful drive filled with historical stops and very leisurely which is difficult to find in the way of travel anymore. The speed limit ranges from 40-50mph on a two-highway. PS: Don't plan to drive it in a day....grab a guide book and stop often to enjoy the history, trails and views!
