Dear Mamade11, Would love to have you join us a The Kitchen. The morning shift deals with the children. Ms. Pearl and crew arrive at the Kitchen about 5:30 a.m. The children arrive around 7:00 a.m. and come and go until around 8:00 a.m. You can show up about 6:30 and help get ready for them or show up around 7:00 to see the kids and assist (though once the breakfast is prepared getting the food to the kids is pretty simple. It's a great experience in any event. Monday morning is the best day to come if you want to work. Once the children are gone then the chopping, slicing, dicing begins--onions, garlic, carrots, yam, etc.--they do this for the week on Monday morning. By about 10:00 most of the work is done. On other mornings the work is not so vigorous. Once the stuff is on the stove there isn't much action until lunch. If you want to do the lunch shift then 11:00 to 1:00 is the busy time. Wednesdays and Fridays are the two days when we generally have the least volunteers at lunch time. So, hope this helps! --Fadder Jim
