Summary
Franklin’s first agri-hood, Armistead, is set to transform 200 acres of historic Short family farmland into a vibrant community where housing, commerce, and agriculture seamlessly blend. Designed as a nonprofit farm with surplus food production and diverse housing, it’s the first project in Franklin approved under an Infrastructure Development District — letting city funds kickstart construction, repaid later by residents. The Short family’s legacy lives on as the farm’s soul remains central, even as modern development unfolds. Construction begins this year, with city leaders calling for more affordable options in future IDD projects. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
