The story of Camp Brown is now featured in a new Civil War Trails, Inc. marker, located at the Unknown Soldier Monument in Union City! 🇺🇸

Civil War Trails is a nationally recognized heritage tourism network that connects more than 1,300 sites across six states, reaching millions of visitors each year who are seeking authentic, place-based experiences. Travelers are invited to explore communities through short, engaging stories tied to the landscapes where history happened. By linking local history to a larger network of destinations, the program offers an engaging and accessible way to experience the past.

“Our program puts visitors in the footsteps of soldiers, citizens, and freedom seekers,” says Chris Brown, Executive Director of Civil War Trails, Inc. “The addition of the Camp Brown historical marker plays an important role in telling the story of West Tennessee.”

Visitors are encouraged to continue their experience just minutes away at Discovery Park of America, where history comes to life through immersive exhibits, including a detailed interpretation of the Battle of Union City and broader Civil War narratives.

As we celebrate 250 years of American heritage throughout the year, we are excited for this new opportunity for visitors to experience history! 🪧

A local hidden gem! ✨

Every Thursday, Melissa Brown & her family open up Stephen's Flower Truck at “The Station” to share local homemade baked goods, fresh honey, and flowers from her farm! 🍞🌷🍯🐝

Her brother, Stephen Frazier, lost his life in a tragic accident in 1990. For years, their parents kept his prized 1950 Chevy in “Corvette Yellow” tucked away quietly as a gentle reminder of him.

A few years ago, the truck found a new purpose. Melissa & her daughter, Alexis, dreamed up the idea of a flower bar — and knew that Stephen’s truck would be a perfect fit. Once tucked away, it now serves as a public reminder of the light and joy that his sunny disposition once brought to others.

Stop by to shop & if you’re lucky, you might even find Stephen’s Flower Truck parked outside! 💛
