The Gardens Bakery and Farmstand

The Gardens Bakery and Farmstand is a beloved family-owned bakery, deli, and farm destination nestled in the rolling hills of Erin, Tennessee. Owned by Mary and Jerry Reynolds, this charming 4-acre homestead has grown from a simple family farm to include over 20 varieties of flowers for fresh bouquets, heirloom vegetables, melons, and free-range egg-laying hens. The bakery specializes in artisan sourdough bread, homemade cookies, and fresh pastries baked daily using traditional methods and locally-sourced ingredients. The deli serves hearty breakfast and lunch options including made-to-order sandwiches, comforting soups, and classic sides that have become local favorites. Beyond the food, The Gardens also operates as a stunning wedding venue, accommodating up to 200 guests in their picturesque reception hall surrounded by blooming gardens and farmland. Visitors can explore the seasonal farmstand offering fresh flowers, plants, and vegetables, or watch the owners' DIY building projects on their popular YouTube channel 'farmbakebuild' where they document building the bakery, greenhouses, and wedding venue from the ground up. Open for breakfast and lunch, this authentic Tennessee farm bakery offers a unique agritourism experience that connects visitors with the rhythms of rural farm life.
