Verona Driving Directions

When entering the Verona or Tupelo area on Highway 45, either from the north or south, take the Brewer exit and follow the signs to the Lee County Agri-Center. The signs will direct you from Hwy 45 going west for less than one mile. Turn right on Hwy 145. You will be traveling north on Hwy 145. Our office and meeting facilities are located on the left just before the Agri-Center which is also on the left.

When entering the Verona and Tupelo area from the west (for example, from Pontotoc or Oxford) use Hwy 6. Come to the center of Tupelo at Crosstown and turn right on to Gloster. You will be traveling south on Gloster. After about five miles and after going through most of Verona, you will pass the Agri-Center on the right. Our office and meeting facilities are immediately after the Agri-Center, also on the right.
