2011 Kitchen: SEEKING SUPPORT/VOLUNTEERS/DONATIONS
« Thread Started on May 7, 2011, 11:55pm »

Seeds of Peace will be busy with Mountain Justice Summer, remodeling their kitchen bus, and supporting RRR, thus they will unfortunately be unable to support the WRFF kitchen.

Everybody's Kitchen has not yet responded directly to our requests for support.

At this point we can move forward with the Durango FNB gear & whatever that crew can round up in the way of donations, then whatever WRFF attendees bring and share. This should be more than enough.

Saturdays (Farmers' Market) and Sundays (FNB) will be the designated supply run (to Durango) days (but of course folks are free to do supply runs as needed and desired). Surplus donations from FNB, including what comes from the Farmers' Market (since those are FNB's donations), will come out to the woods to WRFF.

We're seeking gear, food donations, volunteer cooks and cleaners, etc.

What we have:

• A large two-burner propane stove (the outfitter kind that takes a barrel propane tank and stands about three feet high)
• Large pots, pans, etc. (though bigger ones would be better)
• Random cooking utensils

Not a huge amount of food at this point, but there's a fundraiser in the works.

What other specific gear might be good? And what other ideas do folks have about how to make the communal kitchen kick ass?

We won't bring our eating utensils, plates, cups, etc. into the woods because we're asking folks to come equipped with their own personal plate/bowl/fork/spoon/spork/whatever.

Here are places folks (anyone!) can hit up at any time and ask for donations for the communal Wild Roots Feral Futures kitchen being organized by Durango Food Not Bombs (to whom they regularly donate):

• Warren at Manna Soup Kitchen

• Bread (the actual name of the bakery)

• Homeslice Pizza

• Durango Farmers' Market (Saturdays in the First National Bank main branch parking lot between Main & Camino Del Rio on 8th St.)

I help prep & cook for Portland, OR FNB. I was planning on helping out in the kitchen.

What does the food situation look like? Is there enough food for 1 serving a day, more/less? Any bulk food people could bring to donate you'd recommend?

We seem to have plenty of food but could always use more as our current supplies will dwindle! Basically anything is good. Thanks!

We're trying actually to do three communal meals a day or at least making food as folks express the need/desire to eat. But folks can always jump in there and cook something up if no one else is!
