The response was overwhelmingly positive—these community champions immediately understood how our shared kitchen incubator will strengthen the local food economy and support entrepreneurship throughout the region. The chamber leaders not only embraced our mission but promised several important new connections to help accelerate our progress. We asked them to spread the word about our project far and wide to generate community support and potential investment opportunities, and to keep their eyes peeled for properties that could become our new home. It's incredibly energizing to have such strong advocates in our corner as we work to bring this transformative project to life!

After careful consideration, we've made a strategic pivot from looking for a lease to pursuing the purchase of a building or land. This decision reflects our commitment to ensuring The Culinary Square remains a stable, long-term safe harbor for food entrepreneurs—by owning our space, we can guarantee sustainability, invest in purpose-built facilities, and create a lasting foundation for our culinary community to grow and thrive. We're incredibly grateful to Oliver Fryer and Bryan Herr at MacKenzie Commercial Real Estate for their dedication to pursuing both listed and unlisted commercial opportunities that fit our unique needs and budget. While we haven't found our perfect location yet, finding our home remains our top priority. Every property we visit brings us closer to opening the doors of Maryland's capital region's first commercial-grade shared kitchen, designed from the ground up for culinary incubation.
