JOIN OUR CROWDFUNDING

With our collective cooking, we have come a long way...

We first started by taking over other creative spaces once a week for a month, since October 31st, 2024 in Berlin, and since February 19th, 2025 in Porto.

We then grew into having our very own residency studio space, for one single month, from June 13th to July 13th, at EEE, in R. do Bonjardim 633, Porto. Collectively run and crowdfunded, our studio space has been a place of experimentation not only for our collective cooking, but also arts and crafts, and commoning.

Our next big milestone: still continuing having our own residency studio space, but this time for 2 to 3 months, starting in September 2025, in Porto.

What is the money for?

Threshold #1: rent for the first 2 months
Threshold #2: rent for the 3rd month
Threshold #3: one full-time employee equivalent
