Please remember, Breakfast and Dinner is included however lunch is not. It takes a full day to prepare two separate meals with the space and camp kitchen resources it is nearly impossible to make food for 750 women for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But our Nourishment crew makes it happen for morning and evening delights. One meal alone is a giant task! As our Head chef of several years Tami says, “The nourishment team at Spirit Weavers is a vast and eclectic ragtag crew of people. The crew hails from all parts of the country and spans many culinary regions. Cooking for SWG is no small feat – The kitchen staff is composed of more than 40 volunteers, 3 kitchen managers and 7 chefs to cook 7,500+ meals per session”
The Kitchen Crew will make and prepare over 15,000 meals during our time together.
You can expect colorful vibrant meals consisting of an abundance of seasonal local produce, whole grains, legumes, seeds and nuts, and herbal teas. We will have a special line for those needing allergen free meaning no gluten, soy, or peanut. We will also have a special line for those who choose a vegan meal. We have bone broth available each morning throughout the gathering as well. If you know that you have very specific dietary needs, or severe allergies, we ask that you contact us and prepare accordingly. If you need additional substance please bring snacks for yourself and children.
Our food is harvested with love, prepared with love, and served with love. The kitchen weavers maintain a fun, optimistic, and energetic environment: a contagious attitude transmuted into the food, to really nourish the soul.
