land for sale in perry county alabama: Check out this "Trail Tree" on a tract of land for sale in Perry County, Alabama
- 08/27/10 03:54 AM
Yesterday as I was out showing a 13 acre tract of land for sale that joins the Talladega National Forest in Perry County, Alabama, my customer and I came upon what I perceive to be a "trail tree". Trail trees were reportedly used by native Americans to mark travel routes, establish local boundaries, or point to food, water, or shelter.

I was elated to find it standing … (3 comments)

Invest in rural land: the memories that follow are some of the most valuable returns you will ever receive.

- 04/04/10 02:15 PM
Springtime is a great time to preview rural land for sale in Perry County, Alabama. You never know what you are going to see when you are out looking at land.

This is just one reason why I enjoy showing people rural tracts of land. Springtime brings the world back to life, and plants and animals are astir … (1 comments)

The Black Belt soils of south Perry County, Alabama are rich in nutrients and flush with history.

The region was once a thriving agricultural center with tens of thousands of acres planted in King cotton. Later soybeans and other row crops replaced the cotton as the principle commodities grown in the Black Belt. The soil is really thick and retains water very well, making the prairie a muddy mess during the wet season. A local man made a great statement about the soil, when … (2 comments)
