Henderson County, Tennessee
Henderson County sits right in the middle of west Tennessee. Agriculture is still big business here. But industry is making its mark too.
Lexington is the county seat. It’s a town with a story to tell and equally has seen its share of change. It started as frontier land. Now it’s a mix of old and new.
The county has some natural gems. Natchez Trace State Park is a favorite spot for locals and visitors. Henderson’s not flashy, but it has heart. The people here are down-to-earth. They value community.
