William Nolen, a Revolutionary War veteran, founded Nolensville in 1797. He and his wife Sarah and their five children were heading west when their wagon wheel broke. He decided to settle here with his family, and the town was later named after him, as Nolensville. Today the small-town charm, high-caliber schools, and proximity to Nashville have been credited to the doubling of the population over the last eight years. Community amenities include Nolensville Park located along Mill Creek, near the historic downtown. The park has athletic fields, a dog park, a playground, and a walking trail. The paved walking trail runs from the Historic School at town center, through Nolensville Park and ends at York Road, near Millcreek Middle School. A new trail spur was added on Sunset Road, allowing residents in Winterset Woods, Bennington, and Nolen Mill neighborhoods to walk to sports fields, the farmers market, restaurants, and shops.

Getting children outside and active is not hard with several organized sports options. Parents may sign up their child through Williamson County Parks and Recreation (WCParksandRec.com) or Nolensville Youth Athletics (Playnya.com). Sports offered include softball, baseball, soccer, football, cheer, and basketball. In mid-April, Nolensville holds the annual Buttercup Festival in the historic downtown. This one-day event features live music, food trucks, pony and train rides, and more than 100 artisan, vintage, and craft vendors. The Veterans Day Parade is celebrated in November on Veterans Day or the first Saturday before. Independence Day is celebrated at Nolensville Park usually on the Saturday before July 4th with live music, food trucks, and fireworks. The volunteer-run Nolensville Community Events committee manages town-sponsored festivals. Residents may serve on the Community Events committee or other town groups including the Design Review, Economic Development, and Trails and Trees committees.
