Next week on Monday 9/14 we are going to open the storefront for you to finally come in and shop!

There is only one way you’ll be allowed in, however. You MUST wear a mask, and wear it properly the entire time you are in the store. I will be strictly enforcing this rule.

Important note about The Hive and COVID-19

Posted on March 25, 2020March 25, 2020 by Craig Parshall

Due to the current situation regarding the COVID-19 outbreak, we are closing the Hive Storefront to customers. HOWEVER! We’ve just opened an online store that will allow you to place orders and arrange Hive curbside pickup!

Visit the online store here.

We take the health and wellbeing of our clients and our customers very seriously, so while we apologize for this hopefully temporary change in business arrangements, we want to help everyone get through this as safely and quickly as possible.

Our clients will still be able to use the kitchen for any work they have lined up and they will be providing us with new items to sell online as well. So check back often to see what’s been cooking at The Hive.
