Rural Guilford County community positioned in heart of the Triad

Centrally positioned in the heart of the Piedmont Triad economic sector, the small, rural community of Outer Pleasant Garden offers an escape from city life and a hospitable southern vibe. "It’s a quiet spot that's really close to Greensboro," says Jasmine Bowen, Recreation and Events Coordinator for Pleasant Garden. "As soon as you get off 421, it almost instantly turns into large open spaces, giving you the freedom to move about." The red and white brick town hall building sits across from acres of green, grassy pastures next to popular soccer fields and a disc golf courses. Closer to town center, farmhouses with American flags can be found next to a few local businesses where residents enjoy chatting and shopping.
