The town was named Hazel Green because of the hazel bushes along the road which were of a vibrant green color. In the early 19th century, several farmers from Georgia and the Carolinas settled in Hazel Green after discovering that the area had some of the richest soil in the Southeast. A post office was built in 1819 on the southeast corner of the intersection now known as Hwy.


231-431 & Joe Quick Road. Several grocers and rest stops were also built along this intersection. It became a bustling community and incorporated into a town on June 15, 1821, by an act of the state legislature, with a population of approximately 400. At the time, Hazel Green was a small, rural community that served as a crossroads.


Roads connected Hazel Green with Athens to the west, Winchester, Tennessee, to the northeast, Huntsville to the south, and Nashville to the north. These roads intersected at what is now the intersection of US Highway 231/431, Joe Quick Road, and West Limestone Road. The town eventually became unincorporated and despite recent growth, remains unincorporated to this day. On April 3, 1974, Hazel Green was hit by an F5 tornado during the 1974 Super Outbreak. As of 2022, Hazel Green is currently undergoing a residential and retail boom, sparked by rampant job growth coming from nearby Huntsville.


Hundreds of acres of generational farmland is quickly being replaced with houses, multi-family complexes, fast-food restaurant chains, and various other retail chains. The topic of incorporation to accommodate this sudden explosion of growth is becoming a popular discussion amongst existing residents.
