Want to start a Food Business? The Food Business Accelerator (FBA) by CitySeed and Collab is a 12-week statewide accelerator for Connecticut early stage food entrepreneurs. Applications are now open for the 2023 cohort.

Check out the link in our bio for applications in English and Spanish.

The aim of the Food Business Accelerator is to remove barriers to food entrepreneurship across the state of Connecticut through training, network-building, and access to resources. We work to create economic opportunity for all, increase leadership by people of color and immigrant food entrepreneurs, and strengthen our local food system by linking rising food entrepreneurs and farmers. We are seeking food entrepreneurs who have recently launched or are working toward launching a food business (such as a food truck, catering company, or food product line).

The deadline to apply is November 20th, 2022, 11:59pm. For further information on the program, tips on applying, and more, attend our info session on November 3rd at 4:30pm. (Zoom invite to follow).

While CitySeed and Collab are gearing up for the upcoming Food Business Accelerator Showcase, we wanted to give you a taste of what to expect! Allow us to introduce you to two amazing '22 FBA grads: Chef Sil's Vegan Kitchen and Momma Kiss Kitchen Cuisine.

Chef's Sil's Vegan Kitchen offers flavorful plant-based eats to the health-conscious consumer. Silvia, CSVK's founder, creates recipes that come from her Colombian and Cuban backgrounds and are also inspired by Asian cuisines. (Her sushirito and her jackfruit pernil are ‼️)

Momma Kiss Kitchen Cuisine offers an elevated taste of home through her comforting staples such as baked mac and cheese, roasted bone-in BBQ chicken, and more! Since graduating from the FBA, she's gone full swing into ramping up her venture, between catering community events and teaching Culinary Foundation classes at the Q-House. CitySeed and Collab are thrilled to see these two amazing chef/founders scale up their business and serve the community through their recipes.

A big THANK YOU to our FBA Showcase sponsors:

@citizensbank
@newhavencultural
@cfgnhv
@farm2inst

SEE YOU THERE!!
