Cook fresh food - fast!


We wanted to spotlight a great donor partner who is working to open her own amazing new shop. Introducing..."Chop!" Portland's home cookin' store!

One day Karen Page had a great idea. She entered a contest on a whim and was selected as a top 5 finalist in the Food Innovators contest for Bon Appetit Magazine! She has a chance to win a $10,000 grant to open her own shop!

“The idea is a simple one - a store that sells home cooked recipes plus all the ingredients - 100% chopped, prepped, measured and complete with all the necessary spices, cooking oils and even an "advice line" you can call from your kitchen!”

She is targeting people who much like herself, want to eat fresh cooked foods, but have trouble finding the time to make a great meal at home. This will give people who have some experience cooking, a great way to ramp up their meals and taste like a top chef contestant.  


So, the next step in the contest RocketHub, it is like kickstarter for businesses. Whomever raises the most funds on RocketHub wins an additional $10,000 toward their business!

We are so excited for Karen and hope that she reaches her goal.  You can support her too, at her Rockethub account: http://www.rockethub.com/projects/partner/foodhub
