The Tuskegee Land Utilization Project is an important part of Macon County’s past in the Black Belt of Alabama. African-American sharecroppers and tenant farmers were barely surviving in the poorest of conditions on land so worn out; it could no longer support subsistence farming. This book tells the story of how the land was rehabilitated and became the Tuskegee National Forest; and about the four hundred families who were relocated to the small community of Prairie Farms by the Resettlement Administration.
