About Evergreen

Evergreen is a small, quiet town in Avoyelles Parish, located just east of Bunkie. Originally called Bayou Ridge, it took its name from the lush magnolia trees that shade the countryside. The settlement grew during the nineteenth century as a gathering place and trading post for local farmers, surrounded by the rich farmland and winding bayous of central Louisiana.
