The burrito project is on

Come help if you want, or just have lunch with us and our neighbors at noon.

Date: March 8 (and 2nd Saturdays thereafter)
Time: Prep begins at 8am; Lunch is served at noon
Where: Prep is at my house in North Oakland; Lunch is at the park across the street -- email serene@serenepages.org for directions

If you want to help, you can either come and cook/serve with us, or you can donate stuff we need:

beans
rice
canned tomatoes
spices (garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt)
onions
cheese (any kind)
hot cups with lids (for soup)
bottled water
juice boxes
fruits or vegetables (fresh, frozen, or canned)
money (paypal link below): your money will ONLY be used to help feed my neighbors. I will not take a cut or use the money for utensils, etc. Only food. You can't get a tax deduction for this, but I will keep the finances of this transparent -- I'll post what I spend/receive, and keep receipts.

How totally cool!

I can't come to work this time, but I can bring a bit of cash to you sometime soon... and you can use it towards this.

I may be able to come help in the future, just have a scheduled THING this date...

No problem! I'm hoping if it goes well, I'll be doing it more often, too.

this is so great to read about! :)

we did something similar a few years ago (before we started our FNB chapter) and my younger son named the project "the anarcho-vegan burrito syndicate". :):):)

Your son is my current favorite person. :-)
