Thumb Coast Kitchens just opened its first shared kitchen in Port Huron. The shared kitchen is at Grace Episcopal Church on 6th Street, and it is ready to host food-based entrepreneurs who would benefit from use of a commercial kitchen.
The kitchen at Grace Episcopal has commercial ovens, large range stoves, and prep tables. It’s perfect for bakers, chefs, and caterers who need a larger space to prepare food for their businesses.
The shared kitchen can be rented for $25.00 per hour or on a monthly plan that could include access to dry storage.
Kitchen Manager Daysha Woodley is excited to be open and looks forward to helping food-based businesses grow and the food offerings in the area to become more diverse.
“I am a local entrepreneur, and I own Daylicious Drinks & Treats. This gives me the opportunity to grow my business, and I get to help others,” said Woodley.
This first shared kitchen is part of a bigger plan for food-based businesses in St. Clair County. The next step is to open the former Atrium Café and operate it not only as a shared kitchen with more options for chefs, but also as a dine-in space for pop-up meals, parties, and more.
Woodley said the projected opening for the shared kitchen at The Atrium is the spring of 2022.
