Hometown Heroes celebrates the brave men and women from Evergreen who answered the call to serve. They left their homes, families, and communities to defend our freedoms. They brought with them the values of their upbringing, woven into the fabric of the communities they cherished. Across generations, these heroes stood united, embodying courage, sacrifice, and a love of country that knows no bounds. Whether on land, sea, or in

the skies, they carried the spirit of their hometowns with them, facing challenges with unyielding resolve and selflessness. We honor their service, their legacy, and the communities that raised them. Today, we remember not just their dedication but the strength and unity that bind us all as Americans. Their stories are our stories, a testament to the enduring spirit of the United States and the bonds that make us strong.

Evergreen, positioned strategically along the I-65 corridor in south-central Alabama, is gaining traction as a promising location for industrial and logistics operations. The city’s access to major transportation routes—connecting Mobile, Montgomery, and beyond—makes it an attractive option for manufacturers and distributors seeking efficient supply chain solutions in the Southeast.

Recent investments in the Evergreen Industrial Park have expanded the availability of ready-to-build sites, with infrastructure upgrades supporting both light and heavy industrial users. Local officials have prioritized site readiness, ensuring utilities, broadband, and road access are in place to support new projects.

Workforce development is a key focus, with area employers benefiting from partnerships with regional technical colleges and the Alabama Industrial Development Training (AIDT) program. These initiatives help ensure a pipeline of skilled workers for advanced manufacturing, warehousing, and related sectors.
