Questions?
If the meal is not prepared in our kitchen, then it must be catered by a restaurant, come prepackaged from a grocery store (i.e. Gordons, Costco, Kroger, etc.), or prepared in a commercial kitchen. These are the guidelines from the Allen County Department of Health that we are required to follow.
We have a beautiful kitchen that is perfect for meal preparation. We have all the equipment needed to help you prepare a wonderful meal.
We recommend preparing a meal for 12-15 people for our Lutheran Campus House and 8-10 people for our Dupont Campus House.
At Hope’s Harbor, we have no set mealtimes. We understand that guests need to have the flexibility to come and go as their loved ones needs them. We have a meal calendar that guests are able to view and we let them know when a meal is ready.
Our volunteers can utilize a combination of items in our pantry, such as spices or cooking oils, and purchase the remaining items needed to prepare a complete meal.
Using the calendar, you can select the time you wish to arrive to the house. The kitchen will be reserved for you for the day.
Yes, please take the time to wash dishes in our commercial dishwasher, put dishes away, clean the counters and sweep the floor.
Guests are responsible for managing their own food allergies and dietary restrictions. You are welcome to leave a list of ingredients for guests awareness.
You can bring beverages for guests, but it is not required. Bottled water is always welcome!
