Want to help out at De Sering? Curious about how it works?
Join us every Sunday for a introduction to De Sering. We will start off with chopping some veggies, followed by a extensive tour of the location, during which we will also talk about why we do De Sering and in what ways you can get involved. At 13:30 the onboarding ends, and we will then join the rest of the kitchen crew for lunch!

If you are a onboarder or a trainee onboarder please try to be present at 10:45 for prep and questions (if your work schedule allows), and keep in mind that at 13:15 the coordinator and trainee coordinators do a checkin on how the onboarding went.

Every Sunday, we help voedselbos Amsterdam (foodforrest amsterdam) with the upkeep and expansion of their food forest. In return we can use the harvest!

We will be done around 17:00, after which we will have dinner at De Sering at 17:30 for everyone that wants to join!

Want to learn how to ferment? want to prevent food waste? Then join the fermentation and preservation lab!

During this shift we finish cooking and cooling food from earlier, clear and process the walk-in, turn leftovers into fermentations, pickles, sauces, salads, drinks, and one-off specials, prepare veggies for Monday, and leave the kitchen fully clean and reset. We also take care of ongoing fermentation and preservation projects and help prepare evening dinner for our community.

We start with 15 minutes to review changes from last week, divide tasks and ask and answer questions. After the shift is finished we take 15 minutes to review how it went, update the plan and edit recipes.

In this shift, we do all kinds of maintenance - repairing broken kitchen equipment, improving the bathrooms or painting walls, there is always a lot to do.
