The kitchen is the heart of our community where we prepare and share meals together. These protocols help maintain a clean, organized, and welcoming space for all.
The kitchen is a shared resource that requires daily attention and collective care. Whether you're cooking for yourself or coordinating meals for the whole community, following these guidelines ensures the space remains functional and hygienic.
Guidelines for meal preparation, community cooking responsibilities, and kitchen cleanup.
Information about where and how we source our food, local suppliers, and shopping coordination.
Proper storage practices for different types of food, labeling systems, and preventing waste.
Storing and labeling food, the weekly review rhythm, and lunation-end fridge cleaning.
How to use and maintain the bread machine for fresh community bread.
The kitchen-cooking cluster can be managed by one responsible person for the duration of a lunation, with support from the kitchen team. This coordinator:
Organizes and coordinates cooking activities
Ensures daily cleaning is completed
Manages weekly fridge reviews
Coordinates deep cleaning monthly
Clean as you cook
Wipe down surfaces after meal prep
Sweep and mop floors when dirty
Remove rubbish daily
Return all items to their designated places
A well-maintained kitchen:

Creates a pleasant cooking environment

Supports our collective health and wellbeing
Please consult with the place steward when taking on kitchen responsibilities for relevant information and guidance.
