Our Founding Members Wall is coming to life! 🥳

Here’s a look at the progress so far as we get closer to bringing Lunchbox Works to life! Only 25 names will have a place on this wall, and there’s still time to become one of them.

For a one-time gift of $1,000, you’ll become a Founding Member of Lunchbox Works and receive exclusive benefits, including a limited-edition Challenge Coin.

More than that, you’ll have a permanent place in the story of how Lunchbox Works began. We’re so thankful to everyone who has already committed to being part of this new chapter!

❤️ ONLY 25 NAMES WILL EVER GO ON THIS WALL ❤️

And once all 25 names are there, that’s it!

No more Founding Members.
No more Challenge Coins.
No opportunity to go back and become part of the beginning.

Because one day, Lunchbox Works will be filled with people eating, working, laughing, and building a future together.

And on the wall will be the names of 25 people who believed in the vision before any of it became a reality.

Your name could be one of them. We are so thankful for those who have already committed.

For a one-time gift of $1,000, you’ll become a Founding Member and receive exclusive benefits—including a limited-edition Challenge Coin.

But what you’ll really receive is something that can’t be purchased:

A place in the story of how it all began. ❤️

⏳ Only 15 Founding Member spots remaining

Will you be one of the 25?

IT’S GETTING REAL. ❤️💙💛

Look what’s officially up! 👀

The Lunchbox Works sign is on the building, and seeing those words on the wall makes this whole dream feel a little more real.

What started as an idea is becoming a place we can actually see, touch, and soon—walk into!

We are so excited about what is happening behind these walls. A place where the people, the food, and the purpose are all wonderfully made.

And Rocky Mount…we’re building this with YOU in mind. Your incredible support has helped make this dream bigger than we ever imagined.

There’s still work to do, but every step brings us closer. 🥪✨

And we’re just getting started!
Very soon, we’ll be sharing photos of the progress happening inside Lunchbox Works so you can see this space coming to life right along with us.

Lunchbox Works is coming!

We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome you in. ❤️

The people. The food. The purpose.

Rocky Mount… it’s happening! 🚧❤️

After months of planning, dreaming, designing, and preparing, we’re excited to share that construction is officially underway at Lunchbox Works!

What began as a vision for a gourmet deli built on purpose is now becoming a reality right before our eyes.

Every wall, every detail, and every decision is being made with one goal in mind: creating a place where the people and the food are wonderfully made.

We know many of you have been following this journey from the beginning, and we can’t thank you enough for your encouragement, patience, and support. Seeing construction begin makes everything feel a little more real—and we couldn’t be more excited.

This is just the beginning.

Stay tuned as we share progress along the way. We can’t wait to welcome you through our doors.
