A Year of Impact

Take a look what we’ve been up to this past year!

From our members preparing meals for newly-arrived refugees to creating our very own “Field Fritter” out of a cover crop of yellow peas, CommonWealth Kitchen is truly living up to our mission of building an inclusive, equitable, and sustainable food economy.

Our Commitment

From supporting a food truck with their health permits to helping a baker figure out how much to spend on flour to guiding a chef as they open their first restaurant, our commitment to our business owners doesn’t end once they finish a class or hit a milestone. That’s why you’ll find a wide variety of programs to support all kinds of food businesses throughout their lifespan.

Kitchens to Launch and
Grow Your Business

Shared Kitchen

More than a place to bake a scrumptious cookie or simmer a lip-smacking sauce, we know that giving our members a place to cook is only half the battle. That’s why cooking in our shared kitchen comes with business support and access to a powerful network of peers and leaders in the food ecosystem.

Co-Manufacturing Kitchen

Pickles need to be jarred.
Drinks need to be bottled.
Dumplings must be packaged.
Let our professional team take care of your production while you focus on growing your business.
