Ste. Genevieve County

The Land in Ste. Genevieve County

Ste. Genevieve County runs from the rich bottomland of the Mississippi River up into the rugged, timbered bluffs of the Ozark border. It's a county of contrasts: productive river-bottom farm ground and grain fields along the floodplain, and steep wooded hills, sandstone glades, and clear spring branches rising to the west. That mix suits many buyers, from a bottomland row-crop farm to a hillside cattle place or a timbered hunting tract that holds strong deer and turkey. State forest and conservation land add public access and scenery. Rooted in one of Missouri's oldest settled landscapes, the county offers both working farm ground and recreational Ozark country. For versatility across bottom and hill, Ste. Genevieve stands out.
