RNC Welcoming Committee

Food

Seeds of Peace, Sisters’ Camelot, and Minneapolis Food Not Bombs –with the help of friendly volunteers– will be providing two nutritious meals a day beginning a few days before the RNC and continuing through the convention and a few days into its aftermath. You can help us by working in the kitchen: choppig vegetables, delivering and serving food, washing dishes, etc. Additionally, we can use donations of bulk food and money. Because of the large amount of food we will be preparing, however, we can only use relatively large quantities of bulk items (e.g., 25-100, not 5, pounds of rice). Some of the basic bulk items we will need are:

  • cases of soy and/or rice milk
  • 25-50 lb. bags of potatoes
  • 25-50 lb. bags of onions
  • 1-5 gallon jugs of oil
  • 1-5 gallon jugs of cooking vinegar
  • soy sauce
  • tons and tons of garlic
  • tea and coffee
  • 25-50 lb. bags of pinto, black, red, and garbanzo beans
  • tofu and tempeh
  • sugar
  • 25-50 lb. bags of rice
  • 25-50 lb. bags of flour
  • 25-50 lb. bags of oats
  • 25-50 lb. bags of quinoa, polenta, lentils, and split peas
  • cases of fresh fruit and vegetables
