Community Kitchen 2.0

Our team successfully built a new pre-engineered facility dedicated to meal production, culinary arts training, and community engagement. The interior spaces included food storage areas, offices and classrooms. Ancillary spaces were installed to host trainings, graduations, banquets, conferences, open houses and catered events. Three new kitchens were integral in creating a true centralized community space. A breakdown of their uses is below. The production kitchen will prepare four million meals for the community annually. The training kitchen will host students in a 14-week culinary vocational training and life skills program. The demonstration kitchen was designed with residential equipment to allow for educational demonstrations to engage the surrounding communities.
