(The Farmers) Market, like everything else in Franklin, is wonderful! Easy to shop, then shop downtown Franklin and then have lunch! 

Shari Burger

The Artcraft is a great place to watch a movie. The theater has been beautifully restored. Love the marquee and the old-time concession stand.

This town has a small, historic town feel without being small. From the variety of shops downtown for shopping to the restaurants... all within walking distance.
