North-Vernon
is a small city located in Jennings County in southeast Indiana. As of the 2000 census, the population was 6,515 residents. Nature and history prevail in North Vernon and Jennings County. The Muscatatuck River meanders through beautiful wooded hillsides and past steep stone canyons, and provides lots of recreational opportunities. Hiking, fishing, rock climbing, biking, golf, bird watching and camping are just a few of the things to do. North Vernon is home to the Jennings County Farmerfs Market, open May through October. Several festivals are held in Jennings, including Garden Festival, Railroad Days, Heartland Classic Car Show and 4th of July Fireworks Celebration. All along the scenic back roads of North Vernon, youfll find state and national wildlife areas, preserves, historic sites, herb farms, covered bridges and museums. Big Oaks National Wildlife Refuge is the largest National Wildlife Refuge in Indiana. Visitors must go through a safety briefing before entering the refuge. With its limited human access through the years, nature has been well preserved for the wildlife. The Calli Nature Preserve, located east of North Vernon is 180 acres with steep bluffs above the meandering Muscatatuck River, limestone cliffs, old hemlock stands, beech and maple forests and a two-mile self guiding interpretive loop trail. Other attractions in the area include the Rock Rest Falls, Selier State Forest and the North American House Museum, home of the Jennings County Historical Society. @
