Our Mission

Our mission is to continue authentic and organic traditions of Black American Food Ways through training, partnerships, and storytelling in the culinary arts.


How we carry our mission

• We offer stipend-based intern opportunities to young BIPOC to learn our trade, participate in purpose driven events and contribute.

• We offer classes from a historical lens giving context to culturally relevant ingredients.

• We donate time, resource, and food services to local Food Centric/mission aligned NGOs. 

• We design events and classes that showcase Black cultural traditions and heritage in digestible formats.

• We partner with established local businesses to bring about awareness and influence. 

• We address health disparities affecting BIPOC by offering client centered menus that are targeted, plant centric and nourishing.

• We address food allergies and sensitivities by offering custom organic, plant centered substitutions or alternatives for key ingredients within the landscape of our cuisine.

• We have created a program to supplement deep discounts for Black & Brown Seniors who are celebrating milestones in 2022.
