Brushy Creek Cemetery has a "working" twice a year (second Saturday in May and second Saturday in September). It is behind the Brushy Creek Baptist Church and is surrounded by woods. There is one big old oak tree and a shelter for inclement weather. The birds singing in the woods, the shrubbery, a dogwood tree, and the wild sunflowers and other wild flowers make this a unique place. In the front corner is a section of City Service Gas pipeline. This cemetery is on LA 389 south of Merryville or west of Fields. It is where LA 389 makes a sharp bend east; continuing south, it would be Old River Road. Follow Old River Road to the right, and then immediately turn left---Brushy Creek Church is on the right.
