Help The Hive support community!

Hello everyone! For almost a year we have been very busy finding ways to support local artists and farmers. If you haven't been to our store or one of our markets, we hope you will join us and shop local! How local? All but one vendor in store is from Guelph. The one vendor is from Belwood and he makes the maple syrup we sell. We've built the store on the model of supporting local and building community. Not just community but a safe place for all! We have themed markets so we can best reach in to all the communities and cultures that make Guelph so amazing!

So why the go fund me? Well, we are expanding! Our store front is tiny and our dreams are huge! Luckily the space we have been renting for our store has a big addition being added upstairs, even luckier the landlord has allowed us to have a say in the forming of the space. We are building a community minded space. There is even going to be a small inspected kitchen so we can teach workshops on cooking, food prep and food safety. Arts workshops, games and craft space. Yoga, pilates, self defense and other physical skills teachings. We just need a helping hand to get it started. We really hope you can make a small donation to help us in creating a place for art, local food and community to thrive! Thank you!
