Real Good Kitchen Food Incubator, Knoxville TN

Today we are setting the table in the kitchen with my guest Bailey Foster, she is a Knoxville native and Founder of Real Good Kitchen, a food incubator in Knoxville Tennessee. Their motto is “Make Change Through Food”. In short, this new place provides the space and resources food entrepreneurs need.
A kitchen collective where everyone helps the other in creating and maintaining their food business. There are a lot of roadblocks to starting and maintaining a small food business and this place helps to offset those by working collaborativly. And in this hard time we are all going through, this place is a breath of fresh air for our community. This small business is in the midst of a crowdfunding campaign, they have almost reached their goal, and it is my hope that by sharing this story with all you all we can help them achieve their goal.

We also get to hear a segment on the happily retired former food writer for the Knoxville news sentinel - Mary Dee Dee Constantine with a soul food recipe on how to prepare Pig’s Feet and Pork Neck Bones by way of Mary Breedlove of Morristown, TN. I don’t know about your circumstances listening in here today, but, for a good long while now, I have been searching and cooking recipes that fill up my family’s bellies, give us nutritional value, are tasty and most of all, affordable. So, I thought this would be a real good segment to include here today in this ole cold month of January in this pandemic and all. Hope it helps.
