OneKitchen is a Wholesome Wave education and mentorship program focused on getting chefs out of the kitchen and into advocacy by training them how to address the most important food-related issues in their communities. From social to environmental impact areas, we facilitate national food systems change by activating in various locations across the country at the local and regional level.

Our mission is to organize, educate, and mobilize chefs as effective changemakers in the communities they call home. OneKitchen achieves this by providing chef members with various learning materials, case studies, connections, and mentorship opportunities to enhance their skills through our national OneKitchen network. Chefs are then activated in gathering partner organizations and stakeholders around one table with one vision: to create a better world through food.

Whether leading a restaurant, corporate cafe, food truck, or college dining hall, at OneKitchen, all chefs are champions of building a healthier, more vibrant, and more equitable food system.
