We are an entrepreneurial sister-duo who started our first business in 2015, Honey Creek Media. The marketing company was named after the creek running through our family farm in Lawrence County, Mo, and became much more than a flowing body of water. It was where childhood memories were made and creativity was cultivated. In this startup, each of us worked from our home offices and traveled for different clients. Then came the day each sister, for various reasons, came to live in their mother’s hometown of Lebanon, Mo. A town we often visited while growing up but never called home until we were adults. Soon we each shared the same desire of making Lebanon feel like a hometown, therefore claiming it as our “chosen town.” How do you do that? We didn’t know at first. Eventually, we decided to invest in our community and, more specifically, Downtown Lebanon. We each fell in love with a building and had dreams to create a space where people would want to come and work, celebrate, find entertainment, learn, shop, explore entrepreneurial opportunities, and dream. We believe The Hive is just that. The Hive is a buzz of activity with the Honey Creek offices on the second floor alongside rentable office space and conference room. The main floor is a versatile rentable event space that can transform into whatever it needs to be for whoever has a dream, celebration, idea, or plan.
