Fresh Food Generation is a farm-to-plate Caribbean American restaurant that opened in Dorchester in the fall of 2021. The restaurant is new; however, our award-winning Jamaican jerk chicken, empanadas, and kale salad dishes are not. We launched in 2015 with a food truck and grew into a more expansive catering and home delivery business. At the encouragement of our customers, we are now extending our culinary pursuits to a neighborhood restaurant. We’ve crafted a menu that bridges our love for local farming with our passion for feel-good, comfort food. We combine New England ingredients with bold Caribbean and Southern flavors to create a meal that’s enticing and fresh. From our signature jerk sauce to our sunflower-seed parsley pesto, all of our marinades and dressings are made fresh in-house without additives or preservatives. We do our best to source our produce and meats from local farms and small regional family farms. In addition, we partner with local bakers to bring you hand-crafted desserts made with simple ingredients.

At Kaipod Learning, our mission is to ensure every child has access to a high-quality and highly personalized learning experience. There is a significant gap between how bricks-and-mortar schools — public or private — deliver education and what individual families and students need. We believe one of the best ways to meet students’ and families’ needs is to blend online learning and in-person supports in a way that personalizes learning and helps students build deep and lasting relationships. To that end, we operate a network of in-person learning centers that provide a community to students and support for their parents. We also invite learning centers across the country to join our network and get access to our online school partners and other services in order to grow or manage their own centers. Our goal is to build a new community-based model of learning that’s available to every child in America.
