Homemade to Money Made program teaches food business basics | Local News

While working as chefs in New York City, sisters Jaime and Sara Secor dreamed of returning to Western New York to start a business of their own. Now in their third season operating Edgy Vegy vegan food truck, the Secors implemented the steps they learned at a small business course.

Today, Cornell Cooperative Extension from Niagara County, in conjunction with the Niagara Small Business Development Center, will teach the free “Homemade to Money Made” business workshop from 6 to 8 p.m. at 4487 Lake Ave. in Lockport.
