Renova, MS

Located just three miles north of Cleveland in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, Renova offers a quiet, tight-knit rural atmosphere right off Highway 61. The town was originally established as an African American community centered around a local sawmill and railroad line, and that rooted history is still felt today. Surrounded by wide-open Delta farmland, it is an easygoing place where neighbors know each other and life moves at a relaxed pace.
