MEET OUR
Partners
When we set out to build Vine Hall, we knew a coworking space was only part of what we were creating.
The other part was something harder to name but easier to feel.
A community where the women of Lawrence County are genuinely taken care of.
Not just inside these walls, but beyond them.
The businesses you will find on this page are not sponsors in the traditional sense.
They are women and families who heard the vision for Vine Hall before the doors ever opened and said yes. They believed in this mission when it was still being built, and they chose to pour into this community alongside us.
When I thought about the women who would walk through these doors, these were the people I wanted standing behind them. The ones I would send my own friends to without hesitation.
This is what it looks like when a community decides to take care of each other.
Founding Partners
Katie and Paul Spears, Owners | Cowork Coffee
About Cowork
It started with a love for coffee and a leap of faith.
In 2020, when the music world went quiet and Paul's touring career came to an unexpected stop, Katie and Paul took it as a sign.
They had always felt a pull toward something of their own and this was the moment the Lord made it clear it was time. In May of 2021 they opened Cowork Coffee in Lawrenceburg and have been pouring into this community in every sense of the word ever since.
Cowork Coffee is a health-forward coffee shop with a heart for local. Every cup is made with intention and almost everything on the menu is sourced close to home. Local milk. Local fruits and vegetables.
Baked goods made by a local baker every single day. When you buy a cup of coffee at Cowork, you are not just supporting Katie and Paul. You are supporting a whole network of people building something right here.
And in 2026, Cowork Coffee is growing. They are in the process of expanding their wholesale coffee business, bringing their signature blends to other cafes and businesses who want the same quality and community-minded spirit in their cups.
Why Cowork Coffee Partnered with Vine Hall
Katie said it best.
"This place will be the brewing ground of so many people's dreams and a community where they can flourish. Having a space like this in our community that allows women to get together to grow and work and dream is huge and quite often pushed to the side. So proud to have this place in Lawrenceburg."
Cowork Coffee was built on exactly that kind of belief. It only made sense that they would be here from day one.
Katie's Hope for the Women of Vine Hall
"I want to see a place where women can get together to dream, have community, have a cheerleader. Someone who encourages you to chase your dreams. Someone who talks you off a cliff when you're scared to take the first step."
Something You May Not Know
Cowork Coffee works with local vendors for their milk, fruits, and vegetables, and every single baked good on the menu is made by a local baker. When you order the muffin, someone in this community baked it this morning.

Sally Edwards Darnell, CMO and CoOwner | Quik Mart Convenient Stores
About Quik Mart
Some businesses are built in a season. Quik Mart was built across generations.
In 1945, Harvel C. Edwards Sr. and Harvel C. Edwards Jr. started a small oil company in southern middle Tennessee. 80 years later, that company has grown into 40 Shell-branded convenience stores across southern middle Tennessee and northwestern Alabama, with nearly 700 employees and four generations of family ownership behind it.
Today, third- and fourth-generation owners Jonathan Edwards, Charlie Edwards, and Sally Edwards Darnell lead the company with a people-first focus, which is exactly the kind of leadership that earned Quik Mart its Great Place to Work certification in 2026.
Quik Mart offers freshly made food, drinks, and convenience items around the clock, whether you walk in or order from your couch.
And in 2026, they have made it easier than ever to get what you need. Every item in every store is now available for mobile order and delivery through the Quik Mart app, so the convenience comes to you.
Why Quik Mart Partnered with Vine Hall
In Sally's words: "We believe in meeting women where they are. We are proud to partner in a way that meets women in their busy lives and provides what they need where they need it to keep them going."
That is not a tagline at Quik Mart. It is an 80-year operating principle. And it is exactly why this partnership made sense from the moment Sally sat down across the table.
Sally's Hope for This Community
"My hope is that the women who walk through the Vine Hall doors will receive a sense of collective purpose with individualized capabilities to realize it takes all of us to make our community wonderfully strong."
Something You May Not Know
Every single item in a Quik Mart store can be delivered directly to your front door through their app. Fresh food, drinks, everyday essentials, all of it, without leaving home.

Fallon Cothren, Owner | Cothren Insurance Agency
About Cothren Insurance
Cothren Insurance Agency began the way the best things usually do. With a lot of prayer, a leap of faith, and a genuine desire to serve the community Fallon loves.
After years of watching families navigate the confusion and consequences of having the wrong protection in place, Fallon knew she could do something about it.
In April of 2023, she opened her own agency and partnered with Erie Insurance, one of the most trusted carriers in the industry, with an A+ Superior financial strength rating from AM Best. Fallon chose them deliberately and for good reason. When you are protecting someone's home, car, business, and life, the carrier behind the policy matters as much as the policy itself.
Today, Cothren Insurance Agency offers coverage for home, auto, commercial, and life, along with a full range of Medicare products including Supplements, Part D Drug plans, Medicare Advantage plans, and dental and vision coverage.
Whatever the need, Fallon's goal is the same. Help her clients understand their options, find the right fit, and feel confident in the decisions they are making for their family.
Why Cothren Insurance Partnered with Vine Hall
"Vine Hall is offering a beautiful space for women to work at, and I love to pour into a community that pours into me. Chelsea has big plans for Vine Hall, and I can't wait to be a part of it."
Fallon built her business on faith, integrity, compassion, and a genuine desire to help others. Vine Hall was built on the same foundation. This partnership was not a business decision. It was a values decision.
Fallon's Hope for This Community
"My hope is that Vine Hall helps women have a beautiful place to study, learn, and grow their business. That they meet new friends who may also offer a service they could benefit from. And that every woman who walks through those doors feels welcomed, supported, and confident in the decisions she is making for herself and her family."
Something You May Not Know
Every single morning, before the workday begins, Cothren Insurance Agency opens with a prayer. They pray for each of their clients by name and for those who reach out to them, asking God to use them as a tool in His hands. If you have been looking for an insurance agent you can actually trust, you just found her.

Stephanie Evers, Owner | Paper
& Thread

About Paper & Thread
Some stores are built from a business plan. Paper & Thread was built from a question.
After 15 years as a social worker, spending every day showing up for people in their hardest moments, Stephanie Evers asked herself something simple.
What makes me feel joy? The answer was beautiful things, thoughtfully chosen, given with love. A gift so perfectly right that the person receiving it wonders how you knew. A toy that actually gets played with. Something that makes an ordinary Tuesday feel a little more like a celebration.
That answer became Paper & Thread.
Stephanie opened her shop in Lawrenceburg in 2022 because this is home and because the people here deserve a store that feels like it was made exactly for them. She had zero experience running a business.
What she had was passion, a deep belief that surrounding yourself with people who are willing to teach and help makes anything possible, and the conviction that joy is worth building a life around.
It worked.
Today Paper & Thread carries thoughtfully curated gifts, toys, stationery, and beautiful things you will not find anywhere else in this area. Maileg. TRVL. Emily Lex. Rifle Paper Co.
Every single thing on those shelves passed one test: does this bring joy?
Not the kind that fades by Tuesday. The kind that gets remembered. The kind that gets passed down.
And if you cannot make it in person, Paper & Thread ships. They also take gift wrapping seriously, adding the kind of extra details that turn a good gift into something someone talks about. That part is not an afterthought. It is a love language.
Why Paper & Thread Partnered with Vine Hall
Stephanie knows what it feels like to need a fresh space.
Even with an office at the shop, there are days when you need somewhere to think that is not surrounded by every hat you wear all day. A place to plan, to breathe, to hear a different perspective. A room full of other women who are building something and are willing to share what they know.
"I love to hear perspectives from others in business and help my fellow business owners," Stephanie told us. "And who doesn't love a good collaboration?"
Stephanie's Hope for This Community
"My hope is to have a space where we can network, share, work, and just have a space. It's like a new notebook. A fresh start every time you walk in the door."
What Steph wants you to know.
"I had zero experience running a business. But when you surround yourself with people who are willing to teach, learn, and help others, you can achieve anything. I always hope to help others learn and grow in whatever business they have. When you help and teach, you typically learn something as well. Never stop learning."
Something You May Not Know
Paper & Thread offers online shopping with local pickup or shipping straight to your door. And they take gift wrapping to another level entirely, adding the kind of extra details that make a gift feel like it was made just for the person receiving it. Because for Stephanie, the presentation is part of the joy.

Drs. Heather and Michael Waido | Family Roots Chiropractic

About Family Roots
Before opening Family Roots, Michael was working long hours that left little room for the family moments they both wanted to protect. So they built something different.
A practice that would let them show up fully for their patients and still be present for their kids when the day was done.
As a husband-and-wife team, they bring different expertise and the same philosophy.
Dr. Michael specializes in adults, sports injuries, extremity care, and SoftWave TRT for chronic joint and soft tissue pain.
Dr. Heather's focus is pregnancy, postpartum, and pediatric care. She is Perinatal and Webster Certified through the ICPA and the closest certified provider in this specialty within more than 50 miles.
At Family Roots you will not leave with more questions than you came in with. Because it is your body and you deserve to understand the plan for it.
Why Family Roots Partnered with Vine Hall
Heather and Michael understand firsthand what it costs when work bleeds into everything else.
They built their practice around the same mission that sits at the heart of Vine Hall. Focus at work so you can be fully present with the people who matter most at home.
When Chelsea shared the vision for Vine Hall, it resonated immediately.
A space where people can gather, encourage each other, and pursue what they are building so it supports the life they actually want.
That is the kind of community Heather and Michael believe in and one they are proud to pour into.
We are so glad they are here.
Something You May Not Know
Family Roots offers SoftWave TRT therapy right in the office, a breakthrough technology that stimulates your body's natural healing response for chronic joint and soft tissue pain without surgery or injections.
They also carry a curated selection of wellness products they genuinely use and trust, including electrolytes, oils, and supplements, because having someone in your corner should make taking care of yourself a little easier.

Vine Hall is built on the belief that we go further together.
If you are a local business owner who shares that belief and wants to explore what it looks like to be part of this community, we would love to hear from you.
Reach out to Chelsea directly at [email protected] and let's talk about what that could look like.
I'm Chelsea, the founder of
Vine Hall.
I spent over a decade as an oncology nurse, and somewhere in the middle of that, I started a business of my own. That's when I fell in love with marketing.
I built that business from my kitchen table, working with women all over the country, and it grew into something real.
Here's the thing, though. Even with a team, I was doing almost all of it alone. And what I was missing was never motivation. It was the room. Other women building something too.
That contagious energy you only get in person. A place that pours back into you when you've spent all day pouring out.
I found it eventually, in masterminds and communities I had to drive and fly to reach. It changed my business and it changed me. But I always had to leave to get it, because there was nothing like it here...
Good work. Good company.
