Hughes, AR

united states

Hughes is a small Delta farming town in eastern Arkansas, about an hour west of Memphis via Highway 79 and Interstate 40. The community of under 900 people sits amid the flat agricultural landscape typical of the Mississippi River region. Most visitors arrive from I-40 near Brinkley, then take Highway 79 south through cotton and soybean country to reach town. The area's geometric farm fields stretch endlessly to the horizon during growing season.
