Fresh Mess Market will be at Horton Park every Thursday, 3-6. The last market will be on October 3rd.

Imagine Monteagle is a planning effort led by the The Architects Foundation’s Communities by Design Program. The program leaders made two trips to Monteagle in the spring and met with a multitude of community members and stakeholders. Their report can be viewed here.

Now that the plan is complete, the town is forming an implementation committee to bring some of the ideas in the plan to fruition.

Please take a look at the plan and let us know what you think. If you have comments or questions about the plan, or would like to be involved in the implementation of the plan, please reach out to Nate Wilson, at diospyros42@gmail.com.

TOWN OF MONTEAGLE

HISTORY

Monteagle, the gateway to the Cumberlan Plateau, first called Moffat Station, was founded by John Moffat, an organizer in the temperance movement. In 1870 Moffat purchased the 1,146 acres of forest land on the Cumberland Plateau that became Monteagle. In 1882 the Monteagle Sunday School Assembly incorporated to promote the “advancement of science, literary attainment, Sunday school interest and promotion of the broadest popular culture in the interest of Christianity without regard to sect or denomination.” Andrew Nelson Lytle, the Vanderbilt Agrarian, did much of his writing at Monteagle, including his biography of Nathan Bedford Forrest.

Gateway to the Cumberland Plateau

So much to do and see!

Tucked away off of I-24 between Chattanooga and Murfreesboro lies a small dot on the Tennessee map. Monteagle, Tennessee, perches on the Cumberland Plateau, a beautiful stretch of elevated land at the base of the Appalachian Mountains.

While Monteagle has had several historical moments, the town has slowly grown into the charming place it is today. Monteagle now welcomes small businesses and restaurants and offers beautiful sight-seeing available to tourists and locals alike. So, buckle your seat belts, queue up Johnny Cash’s “Monteagle Mountain,” and enjoy the quaint and charming mountaintop town of Monteagle, Tennessee.
