From the high ground can be seen the mountains of Eastern Alabama. It has been owned by the same family for 83 years. It played a central role in the early days, housing a community store and post office. However, the central pursuit was farming. Blackfoot Ridge proved to be well suited for both crops and livestock. More recently, this farm included a poultry operation and commercial her of Black Angus.
