the HIVE MARKET

1st Event Launch- May 17th Recap

· Upcoming Events

We’re buzzing with excitement — The Hive Market is starting to take flight!

We’re so grateful for the incredible support and feedback from our Cincinnati community, which has helped guide the future direction of the Hive Market. Now, as we move forward, we want to hear even more from you — help us shape something truly special!

A huge thank you to Channel 12 News for sharing our story and our vision for this next chapter. Read the full story here.

The future is bright — and it’s buzzing. Thank you for being part of it. Let’s build the Hive Market together in the Cheviot Dora District Cincinnati, OH.

One of our favorite pieces of community feedback from this story was, 'Let's go have spirits with the spirits' — and honestly, we don't take ourselves too seriously and laughed along with you. We believe there’s no better way to honor life than by raising a glass to it. Stop by our first Hive Market on Saturday, May 17th, celebrate with us, and share your ideas as we bring new life to an old space — we’d love to hear your thoughts as we build something special together!

The Hive Came Alive: A Recap of Our First Market Day

It's so uplifting when a community comes together — and on May 17th, even the wind couldn’t stop the buzz. Our very first Hive Market officially launched, and while Mother Nature gave us a gusty welcome, your energy, enthusiasm, and support made the day unforgettable.

We were so grateful to meet each of you who stopped by — friends, families, neighbors, and curious passersby — you made the market feel like something bigger than a Saturday event. You made it feel like home.

Weathering the Wind & Creating Space

We’ll be honest — the wind had other plans. About half our vendors packed up early for safety (understandably so), and we quickly adapted by condensing booths and welcoming some folks indoors. It was a true testament to the resilience of small businesses and the power of community flexibility. Despite the breeze, you still showed up — and that’s what made the day so meaningful.

What’s Next: Growing, Renovating & Sourcing Local Eats

Hive Market is just getting started. As we continue to renovate and expand our space, you’ll notice new additions, improved flow, and a little more 'wow' each month. We’re also opening the door to 1–2 food trucks who want to join the fun at our next event — if that’s you, reach out and let’s chat!

While we encourage everyone to explore local restaurants and pubs around Cheviot, we’re excited to bring in more grab-and-go options to keep the buzz going right on site.

A Little Laughter, a Lot of Love

If you caught Dominic promoting the event before we opened (and forgetting the name of Mom’s company) — don’t worry, we forgave him! The spirit of the day was never about perfection, it was about presence, community, and shared joy. All in good fun, all in good taste.

So many people stopped to say, “Thank you for being here.” But truly, Ken and I want to thank YOU for showing up, cheering us on, and making this first Hive Market something worth building.

We can’t wait for you to see what’s next — because this is just the beginning.

Cheers,

Ken & Melissa
