Processing kitchens

Processing kitchens
Vision: Easy access for local producers to needed processing facilities, including business incubator kitchen services.

• Work plan ideas: 1) database on existing facilities with excess capacity that producers might use 2) explore mobile facility options 3) explore re-development of existing facilities at Grand Traverse Commons, including business model that could work  4) seek funding
• Next steps: Pursue region's existing economic development plan for processing kitchens that includes ideas above: database and use of Commons.
