This is a networking format for the development of a
Community Supported Kitchen in the city of Chicago. Ideally, it would be the first of many. There could also be a variety of different types or styles of kitchen, to suit the temperament and tastes of the members
Mission:: Our aim is to create a setting where local/regional, season, artisanal, and organic CSA generated and supported produce and meat/dairy will be used to create a menu for service out of any variety of alternative food service settings.
This could mean a church kitchen for starters, and it might possibly utilize a fully build out commercial space as it become more established and successful. This would function mainly as a co-op, as we would like to avoid the absurd start up costs of establishing a conventional business-model restaurant.
This would also be menu-planned on a price-fixe model, to avoid the severe amount of cost and waste stream that is generated in the process of maintaining a fixed menu. We would like to accommodate and reflect the erratic and seasonal nature of traditional farming techniques and food production practices.
Products:: We will provide Nutrient dense prepared foodstuffs, either as complete meals or ala carte. We will have provisions for dining in as a loose-knit community, or obtaining food for carry out. We can also sponsor community development events for our or other related groups, associations or agencies.
