Become a Member!
When you join the Wilmington Kitchen Collective, you are joining a community. Accepted members are food entrepreneurs who are looking to become connected with business and culinary experts, gain access to our commercial kitchen space, and sell your products side by side.
From the beginning the Kitchen Collective has been a team effort of many organizations coming together to do something creative in the city. Whether you are an entrepreneur in the dream stage or you have an established food truck, we would love to work together.
​
There is currently a waiting list for our commercial kitchen space, but while you wait we would love to connect you with the community and provide the supports we can.
