Catalyst Kitchens Northwest Regional Summit 2026 – Seattle, WA
FareStart is one of the founding members of the Catalyst Kitchens network, and was the parent organization of Catalyst Kitchens through 2021. We are excited to return to the site of many past events and national summits, and show all the ways FareStart has and is growing, changing, and adapting their approaches to training, social enterprise, and hunger relief. We are ecstatic to have them hosting one of our 2026 Regional Summits.
We will learn from their team and partners how they approach program design, especially for the unique challenges presented by populations of youth and adults in the Seattle community, and how they are pushing themselves as an innovator in their community beyond just food and job training. We will also hear from other local Washington members, and dive into topics relevant to all members, such as recruiting, funding, enterprise growth, and more.
Day 1 will run from 12:30PM to 4:30PM, and include lunch at the FareStart restaurant and an optional evening social event.
Day 2 will run from 9:00AM to 4:30PM, and include breakfast and lunch, with the option to join for FareStart’s signature Guest Chef Night from 5:30PM-8PM.
We are working with the team at FareStart to build an engaging and enriching event that will be valuable to all that attend. Be on the lookout for a draft agenda in January, with the final agenda in early February two weeks ahead of the event.
