Settled in the mid-19th century, the town of Olivette started out as a small farming town along an old Indian trail called Bonhomme Trail, which is now known as Old Bonhomme Road. Olivette is a midpoint between the Mississippi River Port of St. Louis and the Howell’s Landing on the Missouri River, making it the perfect place for wagons to restock when traveling from one to another. The town is still a good midpoint and place to restock for any trip.
Olivette also has some great mental health professionals in and around the town for those who may need some extra support or advice. Anyone who is struggling with a problem that concerns mental or emotional help can be sure to find the help they need in the Olivette area.
