Remarkable transformations are taking place in Millersburg.

One shining example is the newly-restored Helena’s Cottage, now available for newlyweds, bridal parties, or a couple’s retreat. This gem is just one part of the larger vision of Mustard Seed Hill, created in partnership with Community Ventures.

After the passing of her father, Myron Agnew, Victoria Benson found herself called to continue his legacy as Property Director of Community Ventures. Since 2022, Victoria has expanded Mustard Seed Hill’s vision, making this once-quiet town a rejuvenating destination.

This year marks a significant milestone with Christmas at Mustard Seed Hill’s first-ever concert showcase, featuring Kentuckians Anne Wilson and Ben Sollee.

Guided by a mission that great things can happen from small beginnings, Community Ventures’ work uplifts Millersburg — helping create a place of beauty, celebration, and growth.
