Our History

Franklin Farmers Cooperative is a locally owned farm supply store with retail locations in Decherd and Huntland, and a One Stop Convenience Store in Huntland. Franklin Farmers was incorporated on Sept. 13, 1946, and today we serve more than 800 farmer members.
 
Local agriculture has changed dramatically since those early days, but the Co-op continues to play a vital role in the day-to-day operations of its farmer members. In October 2016, we expanded our Decherd store to bring a larger retail offering to the community. Since that time, we’ve become a family destination for shopping. The Co-op still provides quality basic farm inputs, but offerings like lawn and garden supplies, hunting products, clothing, boots, companion animal care, and equine products now appeal to a broad range of rural lifestyle consumers. Though the business is farmer-owned, anyone is welcome to shop at the Co-op. One of our main objectives is to appeal to every person in the community and bring a level of customer service that is unmatched by most retailers.
 
We’re proud that every dollar you spend at Franklin Farmers Co-op stays local. We truly are your Hometown Store!
