Local growth should benefit local people

In Houston’s East End, a neighborhood with rich history and culture, traditional real estate projects often lead to wealth leaving the community rather than empowering it. 

Magnolia Fund HTX is here to break that cycle. We believe that local growth should directly benefit local people. 

Our mission is to create a model where community development is synonymous with community ownership, allowing residents to profit from their neighborhood’s success rather than be pushed out by it.

Magnolia Fund HTX is transforming 50,000 square feet in the heart of the East End into Houston’s first community-owned commercial kitchen, and food-maker hub. This campus will bring together food entrepreneurs, artisans, and residents in a shared, vibrant space. 

With a 2,000-square-foot commercial kitchen, expansive co-working and event areas, and a community courtyard, we’re giving local food-makers and families a central place to gather, grow, and celebrate what makes East End unique. We’re building a catalyst for local talent, creating a sustainable ecosystem that strengthens the community.

Magnolia Fund HTX doesn’t just serve the East End community; it’s owned by it. With 90% of our founding investors from the neighborhood, we’re creating a powerful model of economic inclusion. 

When East End residents invest in their own neighborhood’s growth, they gain more than financial returns—they’re building a direct stake in the future prosperity of their community. 

For investors, this is a rare opportunity to support a project that keeps wealth close to home, strengthening the local economy from within.

Magnolia Fund HTX has:

  • Secured a sale contract for the Harrisburg Blvd property
  • Partnered with local businesses, establishing a foundation for community-centered growth
  • Signed letters of intent with future kitchen members eager to bring their businesses to the East End campus

Backed by strong support from residents and local entrepreneurs, we’re turning community ownership into reality. 

Magnolia Fund HTX’s multi-functional campus is designed to create sustainable revenue across several key areas:

  • Commercial kitchen space for local food makers who rely on affordable, shared facilities
  • Event space and co-working memberships for local businesses and organizations, bringing in steady income
  • Leased food and beverage spaces that attract both locals and visitors, establishing the campus as a community destination

Each revenue stream supports our vision of a financially self-sustaining community hub, reinforcing our commitment to long-term economic stability.

Future projections cannot be guaranteed.

Expanding impact beyond the kitchen  

The Community Owned Kitchen is just the beginning. Magnolia Fund HTX’s model is built to grow, with plans to renovate and expand into the additional buildings on site (3 total). As we establish our foundation with the kitchen, we’re already exploring additional services and partnerships that will make our entire campus flourish. 

  • Restaurants, hotels, and event spaces to expand our influence and revenue streams
  • Local artisans and makers who align with our mission of community-first development
  • Pro sports activations centered around large-scale sporting events (e.g., World Cup ‘26, Astros, Rockets, and Texans games).

By expanding, we not only increase revenue potential but deepen our impact, creating more opportunities for local ownership and reinvesting profits back into the communities that need it most. Investors today will also be owners in the future of the entire property/campus.

Magnolia Fund HTX believes that responsible development means considering our environmental impact. Our campus will be designed with sustainability at its core, including:

  • Energy-efficient building materials that reduce waste and operational costs
  • Waste reduction practices that support a cleaner, healthier environment
  • Support for local food producers to reduce environmental impact and promote local economy

By minimizing our environmental footprint, we’re creating a community asset that future generations can take pride in. This commitment to sustainability isn’t just good for business; it’s essential for building a lasting legacy in the East End.

Magnolia Fund HTX is pioneering a groundbreaking approach to creating wealth for a community that has long been excluded from its own economic growth. 

We’re giving residents the chance to reclaim ownership, share in the profits, and create lasting impact right where they live. By investing in Magnolia Fund HTX, you’re joining a movement that redefines community-driven development, building sustainable wealth from the ground up. 

Invest in Magnolia Fund today and support a future where prosperity is shared, and success is community-owned. 

How does this investment work and how do you receive a return?

By investing in Magnolia Fund, you are becoming a non-managing member of Magnolia Fund HTX, LLC which grants you interest in the company. How much interest you have depends on how much we raise, up to $2.5M including off-Wefunder investors. For example, if we raise the full $2.5M and you invest $10k, you will own 0.4% interest.  

When we open doors to our shared kitchen and payments for costs, taxes, and contingencies have been made, we can start making distributions to investors. Please note that the timing and number of distributions is determined by the Manager in its sole discretion. That means that there is no guaranteed timing for investment returns and it is possible to never receive a return on this investment.

Once we have generated sufficient cash flow, the first available funds go entirely to the investors. First, investors will receive 100% of their initial investment back. Then, investors will receive distributions until they receive an 8% Return on Investment per year. Distributions will be made proportionally to an investor's percentage interest in the company. This 8% return will continue year over year for the life of the fund. 

After the initial return of capital to investors and the 8% return per year, 100% of distributed cash flow will go to the fund Manager, until the Manager has received distributions equal to 20% of all distributions made to such date. Any available funds after that are split 70/30 with 70% going to investors.

Investors will continue to receive 8% return income over the entire profit-earning life of the fund, until the property is sold or if there is a subsequent fund created for initial investors to exit.


Future projections are not guaranteed.
