New Member Inquiry

Please fill out this form if you are a new or existing business interested in joining Fork Food Lab! Upon submission of this form, you will be added to our email list, an incredible resource, so you can stay up to date with all things Fork Food Lab! You may unsubscribe at any time.

Before you fill out the form:

1. Please take a deep dive on our website, especially the Membership Information and Pricing tabs. It's designed to be a useful tool for you!

2. If you do not already have a Food Protection Management Certificate, we recommend getting one. It's a member requirement for operating at Fork and is required for most Food Business License Applications. You can find more info here.

3. If you do not already have a business plan, please acquire a free advisor from Maine Small Business Development Center. Chris Cole, Food Business Advisor, is a good friend of Fork and provides incredible support.

4. The first step of onboarding after submitting your inquiry is to schedule a tour. Tours are the best way for you to get a feel for our shared kitchen and explore whether our space and community are the right fit for your food business. A member of our team will be in touch to schedule a tour. Facility tours cost $20. A staff member will reach out with details within one week of receiving your inquiry.
