Nirvana Candy Company Ribbon Cutting

Written by Lebanon Wilson Chamber Marketing on . Posted in Chamber Blog, Ribbon Cuttings.

We had a great time celebrating Nirvana Candy Company earlier this week with a special ribbon cutting in honor of their one-year anniversary on the Square in downtown Lebanon! 🍬✂️

This family-owned business has a truly sweet story. What began as Jackson’s dream of becoming a “candy cooker” at just five years old has grown into a successful business—starting online, expanding through local events and festivals, and now thriving in their very own storefront.

Congratulations to the Nirvana Candy Company team on one year in downtown Lebanon! We’re proud to celebrate your journey and continued success in our community.

Nirvana Candy Company is located at 108 S. Cumberland Street, Lebanon, TN 37087

Why Wilson County Needs a Boys & Girls Club

Written by Lebanon Wilson Chamber Marketing on . Posted in Chamber Blog, Member Promotions.

The Boys & Girls Club of Wilson County is more important than ever as our community grows, and our youth need supportive spaces to learn, play, and thrive. Lebanon’s Ward 2 is home to more than 5,200 residents, with a young median age of about 34 years, showing that many families and children live right here where the Club will serve.

Across Lebanon and Wilson County, nearly one in four residents is under 18, illustrating the need for programs that provide safe after-school environments, youth development opportunities, and mentorship.

The Boys & Girls Club will help fill gaps by offering structured activities, caring adults, and a place where all kids can reach their full potential. By investing in our youth today, we help ensure a stronger, healthier Wilson County tomorrow.
