H.K. AND J.K. HOLLOWAY RESERVE - MONROE COUNTY, 345 ACRES
In September of 2007, the Holloway Family established the H.K. and J.K. Holloway Reserve with a gift of 345 acres in Monroe County, Mississippi.
The family moved to the Amory area in 1887 and established a family store. The area now known as the H.K. and J.K. Holloway Reserve has remained in the family since that time and now the Holloway family is entrusting its care to the College of Forest Resources at Mississippi State University.
The H.K. and J.K. Holloway Reserve will be managed by the College of Forest Resources, and funds generated from the property will be placed in the H.K. and J.K. Holloway Memorial Endowed Scholarship in the College of Forest Resources.
The property is primarily a recreational site and is earning income through hunting leases. A portion of the Holloway Reserve is timbered in plantation pine that will be ready for thinning in the near future.
