The Nunnelly farm located 40 minutes West of Nashville in Nunnelly, Tennessee, is one of southern Middle Tennessee's finest family farms. Situated along the banks of the cold
and clear waters of the Piney River in Hickman County, the nearly one thousand acre farm is rich in history and agriculture. With over two miles of this scenic river and many
fertile acres of bottomland, it is no wonder the Nunnelly family chose this spot in 1844 to call home. The ancestral home of the Nunnelly family was built in 1823 by Robert
Sheegog, a prominent local landowner that later built writer William Faulkner’s home.
Rolling hills of mature hardwood and the historic family home place give anyone a sense of what it was like to live on a productive Hickman County farm in 19th or 20th centuries.

The Nunnelly property is a five generation farm under the same family ownership since 1844 and is protected with a Conservation Easement. It has been operated as a mixed
agricultural endeavor- raising, cattle, corn, tobacco, cotton and hay. Today it continues primarily as a high quality hay operation. A large majority of the soils are defined as prime farmland soils by the USDA.
This farm also provides an ideal wildlife habitat perfect for hunting, fishing and canoeing. The Piney River is one of the healthiest streams in the Duck River Watershed and is a naturally reproducing trout stream that is classified as a tier two or High Quality Water Stream
