About

Wantonia Dyson
The Cooking Station Indy was founded by Wantonia Dyson, who brings over a decade of experience in the culinary industry. After launching her baked goods business, Tonia's On A Roll, Wantonia faced challenges finding a licensed kitchen for her mobile food business. This experience inspired her to create The Cooking Station Indy, offering a dedicated, certified space to support food entrepreneurs like herself.
Wantonia's passion for local businesses shines through her hands-on approach, where she engages with vendors, provides networking opportunities, and offers valuable resources to help them thrive. Her commitment to culinary innovation and entrepreneurship has transformed The Cooking Station Indy into a vibrant space for chefs, caterers, food trucks, and local farmers alike.
