Community Description
Short Description: Greensboro is 33 miles from Tallahassee. The major industry in the area is agriculture. Tomatoes are the primary crop. Other crops include strawberries, woody ornamentals and mushrooms.
In 1895, J.W. Green bought 160 acres near his birthplace in the Alamo community of Gadsden County. He moved into the place and soon secured a post office called Green's. When the Apalachicola Northern Railway was built in 1907, a depot was located on the Green farm, which was platted as a town and named in honor of Green.
Nearby communities include Gretna (6.5 miles), Chattahoochee (11 miles), Quincy (11 miles), Sneads (16 miles), Bristol (19 miles), Midway (20 miles) and Grand Ridge (21 miles)
