Old School Knife Works
J Culpepper & Company has been in the supply end of the knife industry since 1976. Specializing in knife handle materials, we manufacture for cutlery companies all over the world. In 2007, Joe and Kristi Culpepper purchased the Old Otto School and began manufacturing their handle materials from that location. In 2009, they opened Old School Knife Works to utilize their expanded space for finished cutlery as well as an outlet for their handle materials.
Today, they operate one of the largest cutlery stores in the Southeast and specialize in vintage and new knives, buying knives as well as hosting a live sale two nights a week on the Facebook profile Joe Culpepper OSKW.
Restoring the old Otto School and retrofitting it to serve as their business hub is one of the most rewarding aspects in their company history.

Zoe Travers
Established in 2006, I have provided mindfulness and skills based psychotherapy for adults - individuals, and couples. I am a long time insight meditator who has committed their life to finding ways to solve the problem of human suffering through gentle skills teaching. The practices I use with my clients are the same ones I use in my own life. I believe in developing self compassion and skillful communication to improve harmony and insight into our inner worlds and with our relationships with others. I ask the deeper questions and model skills for being concrete about exploring my clients lived experiences. Looking at how we can rely on the basics such as naming emotions, thoughts, needs, body experiences, as powerful tools for gaining insight and being skillful with regard to our motivations and deepest intentions.

TrailMix
Since 2021 Trailmix Features a curated selection of nature inspired gifts for all ages.
Who are we? At the core we're wanderers, nature lovers and artists. I have a BFA in Ceramics and Photography. Nick in Graphic Design (and isan amazing woodworker, even if he denies it). Max currently dabbles in all mediums. In 2008 I opened Gifted in Boston, MA and despite its success and the amazing people I met along the way I knew something was missing. I sold my first love and most of my possessions to make life “simpler” for my family and I. (Although I don’t think Nick would agree that buying an RV to travel with a baby and two dogs qualifies as simple…) Lucky for him 7 months in we came by Franklin and never left. Despite having no friends or family here we were welcomed as such. It made me realize that besides immersing ourselves back into nature that I wanted a shop that brought me back to when I first opened Gifted. Small, curated and quirky catering to those with an appreciation for all things outdoors.
