There are a number of communal cooking spaces throughout the festival, often adopted by the village or 'tribe' camped around them, they each have a unique character and approach for a variety of dietary needs and preferences. Far more than a food provision service, community kitchens at ConFest become a hub for the community to interact with, entertain, and care for itself.
The Communal Kitchen spaces are equipped with things like, carports & tarps, burners/barbeques & gas bottles, sinks & some plumbing and tables. As well as a sanded area with a half 44 gallon drum in which a wood fire may be lit when local Fire Safety conditions allow.
If you have some pots, pans, saucepans, plates, knives forks and spoons etc, that you no longer need and you'd like to donate them to the volunteers kitchen or the fire circle communities, please bring them to ConFest or contact folks (at) dte.org.au.
Note, Cooking must be done in approved fire circles, in regulation fire drums or burners in the authorised community kitchen spaces. NO small fires or personal gas/fuel cookers are allowed outside approved fire areas.
