We at Aligned Investments believe that sustainable food systems are made up of many independent producers. That’s why we created Dancing Spoons — to provide a state-of-the-art facility that enables experienced caterers, educators and chefs to move out of their home kitchens and take their businesses to the next level. Dancing Spoons will be especially valuable for skilled chefs and artisan producers of ingredient-driven, handmade products that are produced on a small scale for the local market. Dancing Spoons allows these entrepreneurs to thrive and grow in a supportive, convivial atmosphere that is designed to help them succeed.
