Potluck Guidelines

A potluck is a party where everybody brings a dish of food and shares it with the rest of the people at the party. To ensure everybody has a good time we will outline basic guidelines we expect everybody to follow if they wish to participate. Nothing hard or scary just mostly common sense stuff and tips for people new to potluck.

Please adhere to the following:

1) All food must be vegan which is defined as not containing any animal products. By this we mean no: meat, milk, cheese, eggs, honey, yogurt, butter, ghee, whey, lard, casein, gelatin, fish, animal broth etc.

2) A list of ingredients or the recipe must be written down to be displayed near your dish.

3) Dishes should serve at least 6 portions.

4) If needed please provide a utensil to enable people to serve themselves a portion of the dish you brought.

5) Bring your own plate, utensils and napkin. Tupperware or other such container makes for a convenient way to partake and then store for easy cleanup later at home.

6) You must bring food to eat food.

7) Couples/families bringing one dish should adjust the portion size of their dish accordingly.

8) Store/restaurant bought food is allowed as long as the ingredients are readily available. This makes it easy for people who don't cook or whatever to participate.

9) While we will do our best to ensure all food is vegan (and yummy ;) ) we cannot guarantee it. Eat at your own risk.

10) Please post what dish you plan to bring in your RSVP comment when you sign up for an event.


When you arrive at the event we will have a potluck coordinator who will check you in and help you place your dish. They will ensure the above guidelines have been met so please come prepared. If you have any questions please email one of the organizers.
