  • TEAM 3: Kitchen Support

    The kitchen is a deeply important part of our gathering and a sacred space that we hold with care. To keep the experience harmonious and cohesive, we ask that those volunteering in the kitchen have some level of comfort or experience with food preparation, cooking, or working as part of a kitchen team.

    Kitchen volunteers will support in many ways throughout the weekend from grocery pickups, washing and chopping to meal preparation, cleaning, organizing, and, of course, plenty of singing along the way. More than simply preparing meals, the kitchen is a place of service, connection, and love - a team working together to nourish the whole community.
