Make change Through Food – Real Good Kitchen Foundation, Real Good Gathering 2025. A visit with Founder, Bailey Foster

Make change through food. That is the tagline of Real Good Kitchen and Real Good Kitchen Foundation, founded by Knoxville native Bailey Foster. Real Good Kitchen is a shared commercial kitchen and foundation offering a food biz incubator and business education program for underserved and marginalized entrepreneurs. Real Good Kitchen Foundation is hosting a fundraising dinner, “Real Good Gathering,” at the Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum, October 23, 2025. Keynote speaker will be Katie Button, a 4-time James Beard-nominated Cookbook Author, media personality, chef, and founder of Asheville-based restaurants, Curate and La Bodega. Katie will share her thoughts about food, community, and recovery in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. I (Amy Campbell) sat down with Bailey Foster to find out details about the dinner, Real Good Kitchen, and the work of Real Good Foundation.
