A Dream Built on Faith, Memory, and Community

Jess of All Trades didn’t start as a business plan—it started as a vision shared between two best friends. We used to talk about creating a space where creativity could thrive, where people could feel welcome, and where art, music, beauty self care and good food could bring a community together. Even when the dream felt impossibly big, we held onto it.

Today, I’m taking the biggest step yet to turn that shared dream into a reality: moving Jess of All Trades out of my home and building a community-centered space with the ability to serve, teach, employ, and inspire.

This campaign isn't just about opening a store or launching a food truck. It’s about building a home where people find inspiration, belonging, purpose, and possibility.

Why This Space Matters

Too many talented people never get the chance to share their gifts. Too many local artists lack affordable space to work, and too many young people need a safe, hands-on environment to learn practical skills.

When you back this project you are helping us create:

🎨 Workspace & Community for Artists: Dedicated space for local artists to collaborate, work, and host classes.

🛠️ Creative & Practical Workshops: Hands-on classes for youth, families, and adults to discover hidden skills and gain confidence.

🚚 A Food Truck That Feeds the Neighborhood: A mobile experience serving gourmet sandwiches, salads, tacos, and custom shakes and smoothies.

🤝 Support for Our Community: Programs giving back to veterans, seniors, families in need, and unhoused community members through meals and creative outlets.

✨ Expanded quality Handmade with love Goods: Growing my line of handmade creations (Joylry, { In memory of my late best friend as her middle name is Joy}Faerysoft Skin and hair care , ResiNova Creations, and ReZignite Candles).

Where Your Donations Go

Every dollar contributed goes directly into building the physical and operational foundation of this vision:

Food Truck Launch: Equipment, licensing, permits, and initial supplies to get our food truck on the road.

Workshop & Educational Supplies: Tools, materials, and seating for community classes and youth mentorship programs.
