Taos County Economic Development Corporation
Supporting the food, land, water, and cultures
of the people of Northern New Mexico
The mission of Taos County Economic Development Corporation (TCEDC) is to strengthen the food systems, land stewardship, water resources, and cultural traditions of Northern New Mexico. We work in partnership with land-based communities to support sustainable livelihoods in agriculture and food, prioritizing producers who have been historically excluded from land, capital, and opportunity. Rooted in Indigenous and ancestral knowledge, TCEDC advances community-led solutions through investments in infrastructure, education, and market access to build a more equitable, regenerative, and locally controlled food economy.
What We Offer
TCEDC Kitchen
Where local food dreams take shape.
At the TCEDC Kitchen, we offer a 5,000-square-foot, 24/7 licensed commercial kitchen for local food makers and entrepreneurs. As part of TCEDC, members receive guidance with certifications, business planning, and market testing—plus new community classes and a food business incubator program launching in 2026. Since 1987, we’ve helped Taos’ food producers grow from recipes to thriving enterprises that feed and inspire our community.
