Forest Hill, Louisiana: A Bloom Town History

Forest Hill, Louisiana: A Bloom Town Historyaf Chere Dastugue Coen
Bag om Forest Hill, Louisiana: A Bloom Town History

Forest Hill boasts one of the largest nursery industries in the country, despite its tiny population. In the early days, the community was a summer retreat for plantation owners. The lumber industry rolled into town with the railroad, which eased the transportation of virgin timber. By 1901, the nurseries had emerged after Samuel Stokes began selling a variety of plants from his woods. Today, more than two hundred nurseries are in operation, many by the families who founded them. Author Chere Dastugue Coen reveals the deep roots of this horticultural hub.
