Franklin TN: The Beginning
Franklin, Tennessee is our new HOME, and a place with a deep history. Founded in 1799 by Abram Maury, Jr. and named after Benjamin Franklin, the city sits 20 miles south of Nashville, TN and serves as the county seat of Williamson County. Before the Civil War, Franklin, TN thrived as an agricultural area, growing crops such as hemp and tobacco, and raising purebred livestock [1].
Everything changed with the Civil War. The Battle of Franklin was one of the bloodiest battles of the war, and recovery took more than 120 years. Yet, recover it did. Today, Franklin is “one of the wealthiest cities in one of the wealthiest counties in the United States” [2].
Flying Cow Finds a New Home
Franklin’s historic downtown is especially popular, and it’s no wonder its charming main street caught Joshua and Britney Arceneaux’s attention in 2023. After trying - and failing - twice to secure a downtown spot, they paused their hunt for Flying Cow’s new location. Then in December 2024, their realtor called with exciting news: the perfect spot had become available! Situated across from the Franklin Theatre, it was the ideal location.
At the time, Joshua was back in Midland, TX helping with Flying Cow’s Black Friday orders so Britney went on her own to check out the space. She could immediately picture it as Flying Cow’s new home. Knowing another offer had already been made, they quickly submitted their own. But soon came the discouragement.
Six more offers were immediately placed after the Arceneauxs’. Then, many, many more offers were put in. On top of that, people around them warned that they’d never get a spot downtown unless they had lived in Franklin for a couple of decades. Things didn’t look good. Months went by with no updates.
Then, in the middle of the night, Britney woke up with a simple idea she felt was straight from God. Make some gift baskets, and give them away. She wanted the building owners to see exactly who and what Flying Cow was all about - not just products, but to share her family's story and the heart behind the brand, as well as the many artists they support and champion in their shops.
She decided to put together baskets that would showcase everything Flying Cow represented and send them to the building owner, the current renter Mr. Bob, (who ran Avec Moi out of the space for 15 years!), and the realtors helping with the exchange. Her hope was to give them a clear vision of what Flying Cow could bring to Franklin: an amazing skincare product that actually works, and a space to connect and celebrate other makers in the community. She wanted to show them a small business that truly cares about helping people, honoring local artistry, cherishing family, slowing down and creating something beautiful.
With the help of the Midland,TX and Lubbock,TX teams - who overnighted both Flying Cow products and items from other makers found in current shops - Britney assembled baskets that showed Flying Cow was more than just a “natural skincare” store. She also included family history, highlighting both her and Joshua’s deep Tennessee roots. Flying Cow may have started in Texas, but the Arceneauxs were just as deeply tied to Tennessee, with family history going back to the late 1700s through the 1900s within the area!
When the Call Finally Came…
It was three months before they finally heard back, but when they did, the news was worth the wait: They got the space!
Tears filled Britney’s eyes when she got the news. It felt like a miracle. It was a miracle.
What followed was a true team effort. After receiving the keys on April 1st, Joshua became the contractor/builder while Britney took on the role of store designer and dreamed of connecting with local makers to be a part of the retail space.
The Texas store teams jumped in to help however they could. John (COO and Midland,TX Manager) and Cesar (Manager of Fredericksburg,TX) flew to Franklin, TN to help with construction, while the Lubbock team supported with design and marketing and dozens of behind the scenes projects. It was a project that truly came together with everyone’s hands and hearts involved.
After the long, bumpy road to “YES,” everything else seemed to fall into place more smoothly. When Britney wanted a mural for the new store, she reached out to artist Liza Proch, whom she’d worked with in Fredericksburg, TX many times since they connected in 2020. To Britney’s surprise, Liza had family in Franklin, TN (5 minutes from the store!) and was already planning a visit in a couple weeks. The mural design came together in a whirlwind, finalized as it was being painted. Piece by piece, the Franklin store was coming together beautifully and faster than expected.
Of course, there was one memorable hiccup: Joshua nearly cut off his thumb and had to make an ER trip. Thankfully, he kept all ten fingers and was back to work not long after.
At least now they can say that both blood and sweat went into building Flying Cow Franklin, TN!
As of this blog, the store is complete and we are ready to get starting filing our shelves with handcrafted tallow just as soon as we can get the final stamp of approval from this beautiful city to open our doors.
As soon as we are given our certificate of occupancy, those doors are flying open! We are READY to meet you Franklin, TN and serve this beautiful town and its people! We hope to be a blessing for many decades to come.
The Flying Cow family is beyond excited to join such a vibrant, welcoming community.
Franklin, TN is full of wonderful shops and rich history, and we can’t wait to add our story to it - and to share as much of it as we can with everyone who will listen (or read!).
Since we have enjoyed being in this city for a couple of years...we thought we would share some of our favorite things about Franklin! Read on...
Founders Guide to Franklin, TN
Museums
Franklin, TN is steeped in history - every brick, building, and stretch of land seems to carry a story from the past. Because of its deep ties to the Civil War, it’s no surprise the city is home to several remarkable museums that bring that history to life. The Lotz House, for instance, offers an immersive glimpse into the past. Once used as a makeshift hospital and scarred by cannon fire, the home still stands as a powerful reminder of the battles fought here. Just down the road, the Carter House tells another side of the story, giving visitors a chance to walk through a property that was at the very heart of the Battle of Franklin. For those who want to dive into local history beyond the Civil War, the Williamson County Archives & Museum in Downtown Franklin,TN offers an intimate look at the lives, stories, and records that shaped this community.
Festivals + Entertainment
Franklin knows how to celebrate, and its calendar is packed with events that bring the whole community together. Each season brings something new to look forward to - spring kicks off with the Main Street Festival, a beloved tradition filled with local vendors, food, and live entertainment. In the fall, families flock to Pumpkin Fest for all things autumn, and the holiday season shines bright with Dickens of a Christmas, when downtown transforms into a charming Victorian village with carolers, horse-drawn carriages, and twinkling lights. Music lovers won’t want to miss the Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival, which draws big-name performers and a vibrant crowd every year.
And year-round, the historic Franklin Theatre is a favorite gathering spot—whether you’re catching a classic movie, enjoying a local band, or seeing a Broadway-style show in its beautifully restored space. The Turner Theater in The Factory also has some amazing shows!
No matter the time of year, Franklin always has something worth experiencing.
Shopping
Franklin,TN is full of shopping options, whether you’re in the mood to explore charming boutiques downtown or hunt for your favorite name brands at the Cool Springs Galleria. For a mix of shopping and dining with a creative twist, The Factory at Franklin is always worth a stop - it turns browsing into an experience.
Downtown Franklin (where we’ll be!) is the heart of small business shopping, and it’s the perfect spot to support local makers and shop owners. If you’re a book lover, you can’t miss Landmark Booksellers, where you’ll discover everything from new releases to rare vintage treasures. One of Britney’s personal favorites is Imago Dei, the tiniest shop in town, filled with thoughtfully curated finds.
Food Scene
Franklin,TN truly is filled with amazing local restaurants and mouth watering food. The hardest part is choosing where to go first! For a true Tennessee classic, you can’t go wrong with Puckett’s Restaurant or Gray’s on Main, which comes with its own rich history (the building was once a pharmacy). If you’re craving something lighter or a sweet bite, Merridee’s Breadbasket is a local go-to for pastries, pies, and sandwiches.
On the Italian side, Culaccino's is a favorite (trust us: order the meatballs, ravioli, and cherry gelato!), while Perren Bakery has earned a spot on our must-visit list with cinnamon rolls and banana bread that are impossible to resist. And when it’s time for dessert, Whit’s Frozen Custard hits the sweet spot every single time.
Coffee
Franklin knows how to do coffee right - and if you’re a coffee lover like us, you’ll have no shortage of spots to explore. There’s something special about finding a local café that feels like your own little corner, and Franklin, TN has plenty to choose from.
Our new current favorite is Hank’s Coffee Station, not only for the cozy atmosphere but also because it’s one of the few coffee shops open on Sundays - a huge win if you’re craving a latte after church or during a weekend stroll.
We also love Elroy Coffee Co., an Aussie-inspired shop that makes one of the best hot mocha lattes around. Over at Coffee House at Second and Bridge, the iced honey lavender latte is the drink we can’t stop thinking about - smooth, fragrant, and perfect on a warm Tennessee day.
If you’re looking for a café with atmosphere, Onyx & Alabaster Coffee Lounge downtown is a must. The building itself is gorgeous, and it’s only a short walk from where our store will be. Order the salted caramel with black lava salt - it’s dreamy.
With so many coffeehouses scattered throughout Franklin, you could spend a whole weekend just hopping from one to the next (and honestly, we recommend it). Each one has its own unique vibe and flavor, which makes exploring them all part of the fun.
We Love Franklin, TN
It’s a beautiful town filled with kind people, rich stories, and a vibrant energy that’s hard to put into words. We feel so grateful to be welcomed into this community and can’t wait to open our doors here. More than just joining the history, we’re excited to grow alongside it - to meet our neighbors, cheer on other local businesses, and play a small part in what makes Franklin, TN so special.

I’m reading from Midland, Tx. I first found out about you and flying cow thru my childhood best friend, Shanna C. I started buying your products when you were selling it with front porch pickups at your house, which happened to be down the street from my stepdad. Lol. I couldn’t be happier for how your business has grown over the years! Your products are the only to thing that healed my hormonal cystic acne due to menopause and I recommend your products often.

I found flying cow from my husbands family all the way in North Carolina, not realizing I had access to your incredible products in my own town! I’ve suffered from all the teenage damage done to my skin from peels to creams to this and that, your tallow has truly changed my life!!! I tell everyone I know to try it, because I know it’s worth it!

I’m in Lubbock, TX – I stumbled upon you when my grandson was a baby. I’d wandered in after visiting Barque (one of your 806 neighbors) and purchased some tallow for Baby Reid (he says he’s not a baby, anymore, he is a BIG BOY) but he LOVES your Sleepy Baby Balm tallow. Every time they come visit I get him a new tub of it. He could be your spokesperson!!
One other funny: my daughter loves your tallow, too, but couldn’t remember the name. She calls it MOO-F-O!

I currently live in Fredericksburg, TX and this is where I get all my favorite Flying Cow Tallows but before moving to Texas we lived in Tennessee near Franklin!! That town will LOVE you. I’m excited to tell my friends there about your amazing products. They will be over the moon like I was the first time I tried Shield. I’m a teacher at FISD and you guys gave some samples to our staff and donated to our PTO auction…As soon as I opened that little jar I was HOOKED!! I’ve now tried nearly all the tallows and it is my go-to gift item for all occasions because you have the perfect solution for any skincare need and the smells are just heavenly. Congratulations on the new location!!

I got my first jar of Flying Cow when I lived in Florida, back in, I want to say 2017 or 2018. (You all were still working from your home/farm, I believe.) It’s been our go-to moisturizer ( my daughter and me) for 8 years. It’s been fun seeing the growth. We have since moved to the Dallas metro area. Would love to see you up here some day. Downtown McKinney would be a perfect spot. 😁

Congrats on your new storefront! How awesome!! God Bless you on this new adventure!
I am reading this from the Nebraska countryside (my forever home), although South Dakota is where I reside now.
I randomly found you guys while searching for natural skincare a couple years ago online. I love your tallow, and the story behind it. I’m all about low toxic living, and going back to our roots.

I live in Arrington, TN and am so excited to have you all local! I fell in love with your products on a trip to San Antonio where we spent a day in Fredericksburg, TX. I was intrigued by the name of your store, so I popped in. I purchased Shield and was impressed by how it helped my extremely dry hands in the winter and how little of the product it took to moisturize. The scent is wonderful too. I won Renew in a giveaway. I am almost out of it, so I am planning a visit to your new store very soon! Both products feel so good on my skin.

Reading from Midland, Texas! Originally from San Antonio, though I moved here a year and a half ago when I married my husband, who was born and raised in Midland.
My mother-in-law introduced me to Flying Cow Tallow, and honestly tallow in general. She is always blessing us and spoiling us with your products. I went through an 8oz unscented tallow so quick postpartum with my first baby this summer. So far I’ve only used the baby balm for our diaper balm, I apply at the first sign of red (and really whenever I feel like it, lol) and my daughter has yet to get a full on rash.
We’re excited for the Franklin location! We’ve walked past the Fredericksburg shop a couple of times but unfortunately it was closed both times.
I’m grateful to have found your business and we love your tallow products. :)

I’m originally from Midland, Tx but live in Coleman now!
My older sister had always used flying cow tallow on her kids!
I’m 26 and have started to have adult breakouts constantly. I have tried other things but I think the tallow is going to really help!

I’m reading from southern California… but about to move east to western Virginia. I discovered flying cow from a friend whose husband had bought her some lotion while on a work trip. I had been dealing with some dry and rashy skin as a result of allergies and was on the lookout for a solution. Flying Cow was so soothing to my skin that at times felt raw and really helped curb flare ups! I love the many scents and have since given quite a few away as gifts. Excited for you guys as you start a new location.

This is so exciting! I am happy for you guys! Your blog made me wish I was in Franklin, too! I am from a small town in Northern NV called Elko. It’s a sweet quaint town, reminds me a lot of how you described Franklin, especially with the hidden treasures throughout. I found Flying Cow through my esthetician and immediately fell in love. It has completely transformed my skincare, as well as my family’s. We all use it!

I’m from a suburb 40 minute north of Philadelphia called Yardley. My daughter was having skin issues and were looking for all natural moisturizers. Nothing kept her face hydrated except for your tallow. We have been purchasing Flying Cow Tallow since 2022 and it’s a brand we’ve come to trust and love. We wish we lived closer to Texas so we could come visit a store, but it is so far. We were just in Nashville (much closer to us!) and I am so excited that your business is growing east!

My friend from Colorado somehow knew about your products and recommended I try the Frankincense Tallow Balm for the severe chronic eczema on my hands. It has been one of the best things I have tried (and I have tried MANY things) for moisturizing and healing my dry, cracked skin. I have already recommended it to another friend who also battles eczema. Thanks for making it!

Love the story of this company! Originally from NM, we moved to Lubbock, TX three years ago. I first heard about Flying Cow from a friend that has severe allergies to things found in most moisturizers. But after a bout of severely itchy skin (thanks perimenopause!) my primary care suggested I try tallow. Flying Cow is the first place I went after that appointment. It’s been several months of use now and the itchy areas are no longer raw and red. I’m a fan for life!

I live in Oklahoma City. I heard your interview on a podcast “Exploring the Marketplace “. I was intrigued that a good smelling tallow that wasn’t effeminate was out there. Wow, man balm was great! I am hooked. Needless to say I have ordering online ever since then. Thank you and May God bless your transition to Tennessee as you serve His Kingdom.

I’m so happy y’all are expanding and allowing more and more people to try (and fall in Love with) your wonderful products. I reside in Canyon Lake Tx and it was a simple google search that led me to you. I’ve been into natural skincare for many years. I had just read an article on tallow and it’s amazing benefits so I just had to research more. I didn’t even realize you had a storefront in Fred. That was a bonus because I visit there so often:) At the time I placed my order, I was dealing with a dermatitis issue on my face. I had tried so many serums and balms and it wasn’t clearing up. When I got my Flying Cow order in, I immediately used some blemish balm. It was literally the next day that my dermatitis went away. I’ve been hooked since! Y’all really do have the best tallow with the best ingredients and formulations. Thank you for these products:)

Reading from Houston, TX but discovered Flying Cow while on vacation in Fredericksburg! The AirBNB we stayed at had brochures from Flying Cow on their coffee table so we decided to go check them out in downtown Fredericksburg. That trip ended with tallow products for myself, my baby, and my husband and since then, I have gifted them to all my sisters who also fell in love with the products you offer! We continue to use your products daily in our home on all family members and we love how much they help out baby rashes, acne, and just help keep skin silky smooth and moisturized. Congrats on the new location!!

I am from Champaign, IL. I discovered the Yuka app that told me all of my skincare products were full of harmful chemicals and hormone disrupters. I threw away hundreds of dollars of lotions, potions, face masks, cleansers, etc. I saw Flying Cow on Facebook so I ordered plain tallow and sunblock (I have many pre-cancerous spots on my face.) Within 1 week, the daily hot flashes, that I suffered for 26 years, totally stopped! I was messing up my body with bad chemicals. I love tallow! The sunblock doesn’t turn me white and tallow feels so good on my skin. Thank you, Flying Cow! Also, Franklin, TN sounds like an awesome place to visit.🤩

We just moved from Germany to Ohio, where we hope to set down roots (as a military family we’ve moved a few times in our lives!). While living in Germany I received a jar of tallow from my friend and haven’t looked back since. You all were good enough to ship to my overseas address and I’m glad that now that I’m back in the states you’re less than a days’ drive in TN!
