A community-driven economic vehicle, the Village Market moves entrepreneurs from theory to practice. We curate marketplaces, launch campaigns & host trainings that position entrepreneurs for unmatched access and growth.
The Village Market was birthed after Dr. Lakeysha Hallmon began hosting monthly master classes on entrepreneurship and community development. As she surveyed the audience, she noticed how many entrepreneurs were simply awaiting an opportunity to showcase their many talents and products. She connected her love for plant-based foods, art and live performances and curated a family-oriented event to support local artisans.
"Each of us must dedicate ourselves to serving the good of our people. We are community. Our fate and futures are interconnected. If we act in oneness and in the spirit of togetherness not only can we survive, we can thrive."
- Dr. Lakeysha Hallmon | CEO
