The economic life of Oak Ridge has long been intertwined with the land and its resources, historically drawing from the surrounding agricultural bounty.

A short distance away, the natural beauty of Mayo River State Park offers a sanctuary for exploration, and the captivating sound of Lower Cascade Falls can be heard a few miles further, reminding visitors of the dynamic, yet serene, character of this inland locale.
