The long table that fills every Friday
One household started cooking for whoever showed up. The guest list now stretches down the block.
The rules are short. Bring what you can. Sit next to someone new. Stay for the washing up if you are able.
What began as a way to use up a surplus vegetable box now feeds twenty people most weeks, with a rotating cast of cooks and an increasingly confident group of teenagers running dessert.

Nobody is a guest by the third visit. You just know where the plates are.
