SJR 6004 Tennessee Senate · 114th First Extraordinary Session (January 2025)

Memorials, Recognition - Bachman-McCoy Farm, National Register of Historic Places -

SJR 6004 is a resolution honoring the Bachman-McCoy Farm for its inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. It recognizes the family's historical contributions, including Nathan Bachman's service in Tennessee and federal politics, Pearl Bachman's conservation advocacy, and Martha McCoy's work in highway beautification and community stewardship. The resolution specifically commemorates the family's donation of the 38-acre property to the Town of Walden, which now serves as a public arboretum, historic site, and community space with gardens, trails, and educational opportunities. This resolution has no legal effect but symbolically celebrates the farm's cultural significance and the family's lasting impact on local history and environmental preservation.
