Rising Tide Roast Collaborative
The Luck Texas Family Grant for Inclusivity in Culinary Culture: $5,000
Java pros Kimberly Zash and Sara Gibson built Rising Tide Roast Collab as a shared coffee roasting space dedicated to positively impacting coffee businesses by sharing equipment, resources, and education. Guided by a desire to make Austin's coffee scene more diverse, collaborative, and impactful, the pair help budding entrepreneurs thrive through affordable access to equipment, sliding-scale classes, and consulting.
Grant funds will increase the space's safety, efficiency, and functionality through essential equipment purchases.
