Beaman Park

Welcome to the magnificent Beaman Park, nestled on the Highland Rim outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

Park History: Before this land became a city park, it had a long history of many uses including farming, logging, and even moonshining during the days of prohibition. In more recent years it was a hunting preserve owned and used by a group of doctors known as the Blueberry Hill Partners. In 1996, a woman named Sally Beaman, wife of prominent Nashville civic leader and businessman, made a generous donation to the City of Nashville that made possible the purchase of this beautiful property for a price below it's market value. Today, it is the largest gift of land in the history of the Nashville City Parks.

Flora and Fauna: Beaman Park helps protect the home of numerous plant and animal species. Some of the plants that grow inside the park boundaries include white oaks, chestnuts, dogwoods, redbuds, shortleaf pines, Carolina willows, beeches, hickories, wild geraniums, Eggert's sunflowers, and turtleheads. Some of the wild animals who call this park home include foxes, coyotes, white tailed deer, raccoons, squirrels, bats, hawks, owls, woodpeckers, snakes, and turtles. Please treat their home with respect.
