We also want to extend a big thank you to Hope & Main for welcoming us into their space. It was a privilege to learn about their incredible work as a nonprofit supporting local food entrepreneurs and helping to grow Rhode Island’s vibrant food ecosystem. From creating opportunities for new connections and bold ideas, this event is about more than just networking—it’s about building a community where innovation thrives and getting behind the scenes of their awesome work!
