Absolutely Outstanding Local Nursery For Every Season!…read more Riverbend Nurseries in Franklin is hands-down the best place to buy plants, trees, and shrubs in the Williamson County area. As a longtime customer, I've been shopping here for years, and they never disappoint. The selection is massive -- everything from beautiful perennials and vibrant annuals to healthy trees, shrubs, vegetables, and hard-to-find varieties that you won't see at the big-box stores. They grow so much right on-site, so you know the plants are fresh, strong, and perfectly suited for Middle Tennessee's climate and Zone 7 / 7b conditions. What really sets them apart is the knowledgeable and friendly staff. They're genuinely helpful, take the time to answer questions, offer great planting advice, and even helped me with landscaping ideas that made my yard look amazing. Prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality and size of the plants you get. Whether you're a serious gardener, a weekend warrior, or just starting out, Riverbend Nurseries feels like a true local treasure. Family-owned and operated since 1990, it's clear they care deeply about what they do. If you're anywhere near Franklin or Thompson's Station, do yourself a favor and stop by. You'll leave with healthy plants and great ideas -- and you'll probably be back again soon, just like me!

I'm never in this part of town so 'getting' to drive here was a pleasure. I love that I am still…read moreable to 'discover' Nashville these [redacted] years later. And it was doubly exciting because I very rarely ever shop at a nursery or go in search of one. This was one for the ages. It may not be the first place that comes to mind when holiday shopping but I had the idea of gifting a series of flowers that align with birth months, anniversaries and special memories as gifts. Think of it as 'art' that lives in your yard. But that's about all I had figured out. Luckily, the folks at Bates took care of the rest. First things first, the place is large. It's not overwhelmingly so (so, not Opryland) but it's big enough that if you don't know what you're doing or what you're looking for, you're going to be the Sims character who just spins. Not being shy about my lack of clues, I walked up to the desk and said what I was trying to do/buy and I didn't know what else to do after that. After being complimented about my thoughtfulness, I was tag-teamed: I was given directions to find a specific person to talk to about flowers and another about shrubbery. Given that you will actually be walking through distinct areas/zones, I was given landmarks to note. I appreciated all of this. I was a fish out of water and every instruction was a sign of kindness. I found my first contact (who had been given a heads up by walkie talkie) and she was awesome. She was so awesome that I just went all in with flowers and forgot the shrubs. She explained zones, planting times, soil, perennials vs annuals, etc. I took notes (seriously). And then she started walking me through the selection. Bates.Has.Everything. They do. Don't ask. Just trust. And a side effect of having everything is fair pricing. They have everything and they have a lot of it so you aren't on the hook to spend a lot due to scarcity. I left the nursery with a bit of an education, plants that mean something to the recipients and continue to adorn yards, money in my pocket for other gifts, and a good feeling from shopping local and supporting a business that's been around for almost 100 years. There are so many cool businesses to discover on Yelp outside of food and drink. Dig in, explore and patronize what makes your metro unique.

When the dirt was dropped at my home, we saw that it was completely unfiltered topsoil. Grass, large logs, large clumps of clay, larger rocks,etc. this was not fit to use in a garden. In less than an hour, we drove back to the store and were told that they do not give refunds for a return. It doesn't say that in the receipt and anyone knows that was unfit to use is a raises garden bed. This soil could've only been used for fill dirt in construction. We actually had to just dump out the dirt somewhere that accept fill and go buy it elsewhere. Point is: they do not care about the product and just want a sale. They knew it was wrong to sell it to me for what I explained it was going to be used for and then refused a return in less than an hour after receiving the product. Very disappointing as we like to support local. Do not go here.

They hold to this policy come hell or high water, and will not take any accountability for their mistakes. Per the email exchange, Patsy explained to me that they were aware of what plant was sent, and proceeded to send it anyway. Patsy Black is rude and incredibly unreasonable. Pray for that woman.

I bet you can't guess what they produce at the Barrel Shop in Lynchburg, Tennessee. Shall we play…read more20 questions? Person, place or thing? You are way too smart for your own good guessing correctly on your first try. Well done you. The Barrel Shop in Lynchburg is adjacent to their main gift shop in the adorable little downtown (only area of town?) section. Inside you can find gorgeous items made from used Jack Daniels barrels. Just as a sampling they have - bar stools, mini bars, serving trays, pub tables, chests, wall bars, birdhouses, keychains, boxes, rocking chairs, coasters, and planters. I didn't find the prices to be all that bad either though a tad on the high side - $70 for a planter but keychains were just $5. Jack Daniels doesn't use their barrels twice so they have to do something with them! What better souvenir to get from the distillery?! Everything is very nicely crafted, I must say. If you spend $10 here (and at many of the other shops as well), you'll get a free Jack Daniels shot glass. Shot shot shot!
