PHMOmag (Pleasant Hill Missouri Magazine) was inspired by Pleasant Hill’s desire to celebrate the people, businesses, organizations, and events that make our community special, while also helping residents stay informed about what is happening in their local government.

When the idea was first suggested, someone recommended starting online to see whether the community would be interested. Eighteen months later, the response has exceeded our expectations. We have seen tremendous interest from readers who want a central place to find local news, stories, events, and information about the community they call home.

As we continue to grow, our goal is to do so organically and remain a true reflection of Pleasant Hill rather than simply copying what other towns are doing. While we may occasionally adopt ideas that have worked well elsewhere, we are committed to building something that is authentic to our community and shaped by the people, traditions, and character that make Pleasant Hill unique.

In the spring of 2026, PHMOmag became a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Currently, our writing team includes myself, Connie Whitlock, Christy Snow and Bunny Tuttle. It has been a privilege and a blessing to serve this community, and we would love to expand our team.

If you have a passion for Pleasant Hill and enjoy writing, we invite you to consider volunteering as a contributor. Whether your interests include local government, schools, community events, business, history, faith, sports, or human-interest stories, we would love to hear from you. To learn more, email us at [email protected].

As our downtown space continues to come together, we also plan to expand our video and podcast offerings. In addition to volunteer writers, we are looking for community members who may be interested in helping with website development, social media, photography, videography, video editing, advertising sales, marketing, and other creative or technical skills that can help strengthen PHMOmag.

PHMOmag belongs to the community it serves. We are grateful for the support we have received and excited to see what we can build together in the years ahead.

(we would also love high schoolers as well)
