Our organization works to bring new life to downtown Rockford by establishing a weekly tradition that draws people into the heart of the city, creates a vibrant community center, increases business at downtown shops & restaurants, and serves as an incubator for new businesses.
We hope you join us in the goal and meet us at the Market.
There’s nothing we value more than local people starting up local projects that they’re passionate about. But we know it can sometimes feel like a long road of uncertainty and expenses to get to the finished product—especially when it comes to selling food to the public. So we’re here to help!
Do you dream of starting your own food truck? Do you want to open your own restaurant or catering business? Have you wanted to have your own food vendor space at the Outdoor Market? We love that and we support you.
Rent our incubator kitchen and start meeting those goals. Take the risk and start laying the groundwork to owning your own restaurant or catering business or starting that food truck! We can’t promise that the road will be easy, but we can promise that our kitchen is state-of-the-art and our kitchen manager is here to help.
