Florewood State Park

Florewood State Park

This reconstruction of an 1850s Mississippi plantation is situated on one hundred acres near the Yazoo River in the heart of cotton country. You’ll find a fully revived picture of the nineteenth-century Mississippi Delta cotton industry, including the reconstructed mansion; the museum with the Whitney gin; the smokehouse and blacksmith’s, potter’s, and candle maker’s shops; and demonstrations by guides in antebellum costume. (In the fall you can help pick cotton.) No camping.
