Shopping & Business

Whether you're a new Franklin resident or you're visiting, you probably want to know where to go to find unique items and great deals! See our favorite stores to find locally made items, where we get our dog food delivered from locally, when to find the best deals locally (like Tennessee Tax Free Weekend), dog-friendly places in the area, and lots of other local companies that have earned our repeat business (including realtors). Plus unique places that provide local items & services with a Tennessee twist -- like Mike Wolfe's American Pickers/Antique Archaeology store in Nashville and Dolly Parton's FREE books for kids (out of East Tennessee). Many of these could also be considered "fun things to do" for locals and visitors any time of year!
