What is the history of Stephens Valley?
Stephens Valley has been owned by the Stephens family since the 1930s, and presently consists of more than 900 beautifully maintained acres straddling mostly Williamson County, as well as approximately 200 acres in Davidson County. Originally, the property operated as a working pig farm that carried the Stephens family through the Great Depression. Over the years, the farm became a bustling haven for cattle, sheep, and other livestock. When Bill Stephens inherited the land from his parents, he further diversified its operations by planting fields of row crops and hay, which you can still see growing today. Read the full story here.
