Deerwood Arboretum and Nature Area
located in Brentwood, Tennessee 

This is a great little city park that has an arboretum with over 69 different species of trees inside of it. It was actually converted into a park in the 90s from the city's sewage treatment facility if that can be believed.

Native Tennessee trees are the focus of the area, although there are a few non-native trees. The area is conducive to school tours and education activities, with a nature complex, wildflower meadow and an amphitheater. It currrently spans 27 acres.
