Flexible Manufacturing as you Grow

Whether you're just getting started at the farmers market or selling regionally, our facility is built to meet you where you are and grow with you.

Here’s what makes our space different:

  • Unlimited Facility Access: Every membership includes unlimited access to our certified manufacturing facility. You book only the equipment days you need.

  • Pallet-Ready from Day One: Most kitchens cap you at small-batch production. Ours is designed for scale. You can store, move, and ship full pallets as your orders grow, including in our multiple walk-in coolers and freezers onsite.

  • 30,000 Sq Ft Purpose-Built for Manufacturing: No more competing for space with other types of food companies. This is a manufacturing-focused facility, so you get reliable, repeatable production time.

  • Freight Elevator & Loading Docks: Move cases and pallets with ease. No bottlenecks, no back doors. 

  • High Electrical and Water Capacity: Ready to power the equipment you need as you scale.

  • USDA, FDA, Gluten-Free Certified: Our facility is certified for USDA Meat and Organic production, FDA compliant, and approved for Gluten-Free manufacturing. We’ve also been audited and approved by Whole Foods Market, ensuring you meet the highest retail standards.

We’ve worked all types of food & bev brands.

Our infrastructure is purpose-built to support a wide range of food categories—from frozen desserts to baked goods and hot fill.

  • Cold & Frozen Pallet-Level Storage: Pallet-sized walk-in coolers and freezers, including a dedicated -10°F ice cream freezer.

  • Blast Chiller: Freeze product quickly and preserve texture—especially helpful for frozen treats.

  • Specialized Equipment: Ovens, mixers, extruders, steam kettles, tilt skillets, sealers, fillers, and more. Whether you’re making waffles, baked goods, or snacks, we’ve got the tools.
