“A few years ago, when asked to write about my dream business goal, I wrote about a large public space that I could use for my photography and could be used as a community space for makers and hosting events.
Today that dream is here!”
— Lauren Lear, Co-Founder

“Growing The Messy Cookie as a part of TPK has been the most surreal experience. This expansion is thrilling, every step of the way. Not to mention, I’ve always been drawn to helping people with passion build their dreams; I’m excited to see how we’ll bring more Maine small businesses together!”
