The highly anticipated Publix store at Village Green officially opened its doors on November 19, 2025, marking a major milestone for this rapidly growing community.
Nolensville residents and local leaders gathered early that morning for an enthusiastic ribbon-cutting ceremony at 6:45 a.m., joined by representatives from the Town of Nolensville, Publix, and the Watkins team. The event highlighted the excitement surrounding the arrival of the town’s first dedicated grocery store within its limits, addressing a long-standing need for convenient, everyday shopping options.
The new 48,385-square-foot Publix offers a full array of customer favorites, including a full-service pharmacy, fresh produce and departments, a café, deli with signature Pub Subs, and more. Complementing the anchor store, Village Green features a curated mix of national tenants such as Chipotle, Chase Bank, First Watch, Club Pilates, Jersey Mike’s, and Physicians Urgent Care, delivering a one-stop destination for dining, banking, fitness, and essential services.
