Finley Farms raises Riverside Bridge in the park Ozark, Mo. 03 30 2021

By Linda Simmons, OZARK, Mo. (KY3) After years of work to preserve the historic Riverside Bridge, Finley Farms in Ozark raised it to its new location. Finley Farms worked for years to preserve the historic Ozark Mill, but right next to it, sits the historic Riverside Bridge, which is more than 100 years old. It all started with a grassroots effort by Ozark community members, including Kris Dyer and assistance from the city of Ozark, and even Senator Roy Blunt and Congressman Billy Long. With the vision of Bass Pros Johnny Morris and his daughter Megan Stack, the Riverside Bridge will soon be a foot bridge and a venue for private events. It will connect to the Ozark Mill and the wedding chapel at Finley Farms.
