Bush, a quiet crossroads community in St. Tammany Parish, offers room to breathe and easy access to nature while staying connected to larger hubs like Covington, Abita Springs, and Slidell. Centered around Highways 21, 41, and 40, it’s a place where acreage, wooded homesteads, and small farms are part of everyday life, and weekend plans often begin outdoors.
Paddlers, anglers, and birders gravitate to the nearby Bogue Chitto National Wildlife Refuge, a pristine swath of bottomland hardwoods managed by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, with seasonal water trails and rich wildlife viewing opportunities. Explore it through the refuge’s official visitor information to plan safe access and current conditions. Prefer wheels to water? The award-winning Tammany Trace rail-trail connects parks, trailheads, and historic districts across the parish, making a day of cycling or jogging within easy reach.
Families value the area’s strong public school system. St. Tammany Parish Public Schools provides districtwide programs in academics, arts, and athletics, with local pathways that include Fifth Ward Junior High in Bush and high school options in nearby communities. Everyday needs are covered by country markets and services in town, with broader shopping, dining, and healthcare a short drive away.
