Table Collective: Bringing People Together Through Charcuterie

Founded by Loryn, a San Diego Culinary Institute graduate and former cooking instructor, Table Collective was born out of passion and necessity when the pandemic put her teaching career on hold. What started as a way to safely deliver joy through beautifully curated charcuterie boxes, platters, and grazing boards has grown into a thriving business serving birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, and intimate gatherings. With a new location in La Jolla, Loryn continues to share her love for artisanal cheeses, cured meats, house-made spreads, and thoughtfully crafted boards—each one prepared with the same care and dedication that started it all.

“I’ve always loved hosting and being creative, so starting a cheese and charcuterie business felt like the perfect fit. Living in La Jolla, I really enjoy being part of the community, and my hope is that my business helps foster a sense of connection between people. It’s exciting to combine what I love while contributing to something special here.”
