OUR PORTFOLIO
Ventures We Build
Companies born inside the Collective — where we hold a stake and drive the model.
Kebulan’s
Garden
Our Flagship Project
Urban Agriculture & Food Infrastructure
Kebulan's Garden is an urban agriculture and food infrastructure company operating in Chicago, with active mushroom production and hydroponic divisions. Launched July 26, 2026, it is designed to combat food desertification, strengthen the local food supply chain, and create accessible entry points into food production employment — particularly for women.
Beyond retail and direct-to-consumer sales, Kebulan's Garden supplies inputs to nearby animal farms and is building toward institutional contracts with restaurants, hospital systems, and university dining. The model is designed to replicate across additional urban sites, with each location following a documented operational framework that validates unit economics before scaling.
This is not a single installation. It is an operating company with multiple lines of production, a growing client network, and a replication strategy built for Chicago and beyond.
Client Engagements
Where we’ve served as strategic partner and prime contractor, delivering results for cities, businesses, and institutions.
FeedBlack
A dual-sided catalog that begins in agriculture — sourcing and aggregating deals directly from local Black-owned farmers — and is expanding into a broader business directory, verification, and logistics platform.
Coming Soon
Our Signature Series
Our convenings are portfolio assets — recurring properties we own and program, not one-off marketing moments. Each series is designed to be repeated, refined, and built on year over year.
Roots to Revenue is WAS Collective's flagship convening series, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, community leaders, and institutions across Detroit and San Diego to activate local economies and connect capital to opportunity.
Each forum is a programmed experience — structured for action, not just attendance.
Coming Soon
