About
The Turnip Truck was founded in 2001 by John Dyke in East Nashville’s Five Points neighborhood. As of 2026, the business marks 25 years of operation. According to the company, Dyke came from a working family farm in Greeneville, Tennessee, and created the store to bring farm-fresh produce to urban Nashville. That farm-to-city origin continues to shape the market’s focus on local sourcing and quality.
The company is a certified LGBTQ+ owned business. It supports career opportunities across all of its locations and maintains an ongoing commitment to featuring local and independent food producers.
