The Incubator Kitchen Collective is a community-driven support system that combines resources, knowledge, and experience to help entrepreneurs succeed in business.
The Incubator Kitchen Collective was started in September 2013 by Rachel DesRochers. She wanted to create a shared kitchen space to support food entrepreneurs. We aim to help businesses generate
regional sustainability – from farmers markets to national retailers.
To date, we have helped over 200 small businesses grow and achieve more than they could on their own.
