Crowdsourcing Campaign
Please have a look and support our crowdfunding campaign!
Location/Contact
The location of our village has not been set yet so we will have to wait for the info which will be shared here later on.
You can call us on our dect phone, FHB0 (8340). We might be busy during the event, but you can also try our normal channels.
Goals
'Meeting each other in the real world', a noble goal isn't? We got bit of "buzz" at the CCC summer camp 2023 but bit more would be lovely From the material point of view we would like to set up our experimental kitchen and two workshop venues, space may be bit limited this time. We will run workshops, experimental projects and be functioning again as a food, drink and bio related hub for community. Ending around 1000€ in plus would be nice so we are kind of ready for the next event which ever it may be.
Guidelines
Over the years “be excellent to each other” is our motto, lets stick to it! Being thoughtful and sensitive towards follow beings around you is important to us, keep them safe from your experimental frenzy and give them your ear when needed. It is a long ride through the life, many experiences therefore to gain and "swarms" of mistakes on the way. Keeping in mind that it is the community which matters and you are it's part is important, be happy :-).
FHB Departments
We will build and run FHB experimental kitchen and at least one but rather two workshop venues. There will be of course the support infrastructure like dish washing area, resting corner, dining area, FHB (and other) projects presentation desk etc.
Workshops
Organizing and running food, drink and bio related "workshops" is most likely our main activity and what we share with the community. You are welcome to join either submitted or spontaneous workshops or you can give some, for more information please check this section.
FHB Projects
If you have a special project which you would like to run at/from FHB please let us know! By project we mean something what is happening few to several times during the congress, could be presentations, workshops, tastings, example is for example Probiotic Drinks Everywhere project.
FHB Budget
This project is funded independently, majority of it being donated by FHB "members" or supporters through our Crowdsourcing Campaign. We aim to collect 1500€ before the event starts, the total running budget should be within 3500€, for more info check this section. Please do remember our motto "everybody welcome, no one turned away for lack of funds". Donations are much appreciated but voluntary!
FHB Gear, Tools and Ingredients
In this section you can find the info about what the FHB equipment is going to be and importantly also the Wish List of what we would like to have but we are missing (like a high quality blender, multiple induction stove etc.).
