Onekitchen is a wholesome wave initiative built to ensure every chef in america has access to the skills and resources needed to address the most important food systems issues in their communities. From social to environmental impact areas related to food, we support chefs in facilitating national systems change at the local and regional level. Onekitchen organizes, educates, and mobilizes chefs as effective food system changemakers in the communities they call home. Onekitchen achieves this by providing chef members with various tools, trainings, connections, and mentorship opportunities through our national onekitchen network. Chefs are then activated in gathering nonprofit organizations and stakeholders around one table with one vision: to create a better world through food.
