Kitchen and allergy information

Hello, we are the Mixed Pickels, a colorful group of people with and without cooking experience. Together, we are preparing the Küfa (short for “Küche für alle”, kitchen for all) at the SCC 2025. We welcome anyone who would like to join us in cooking delicious meals for everyone. If you would like to participate (preferably for a few days, but shorter periods are also acceptable), please contact the kitchen information point or send us an email at .

Here is some additional information about the concept:

We want to make this Küfa as participatory as possible and empower people with little Küfa experience to wield the wooden spoon and participate in the kitchen beyond the usual chopping and slicing. We want to organize a cooking event that is as free as possible from hierarchies, discrimination, and exclusion. We see the kitchen as a place of learning and encouragement, where we can respect and appreciate our differences.

We strive to cook allergy-friendly meals and want to cater to all dietary needs as much as possible. For example, we have a separate gluten-free kitchen. We definitely cover common allergies such as peanuts, gluten, garlic, histamine intolerance, etc. If you have more complex allergies or preparation requirements, or if you are allergic to airborne particles from certain foods, you can register this on the barrier removal form and we will do our best to cook according to your needs. You can find the form here. If you have any other non-food-related needs for your time at the camp, you can also enter them there. In any case, please register at the kitchen information tent during meal times – even if you have already registered in advance and regardless of your allergy.

All daily cooking shifts are divided up in the morning plenary session and small teams of 2–4 people are formed so that no one has to cook alone. All long–term responsibilities are divided among everyone in the kitchen. In order for the kitchen crew to grow together as a group, it would be good to cook not just for one day, but for several days.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
