Finding and storing things in the Glenwood Lutheran Church kitchen
Storing cookware and dishes
Some Toledo Food Not Bombs members and church members collaborated (in the Spring of 2023) on a kitchen re-organization and a directory system for locating and returning items in the kitchen. All of the cupboards, drawers, and racks have signs with location codes and numbers on them; you can use this directory to find items that you need to use by looking them up by their name and identifying the corresponding location in the kitchen. If items or item names are missing from this directory, please tell John Clark about it.
You can find a print version of this directory in the kitchen on the counter near the phone.
