How often are events?
The cadence for how often your Cookbook Club gathers is up to you. We do suggest consistency. Whether you meet up every month, or once a quarter, you decide what works best for your community.
Can there be more than one Kenilworth Cookbook Club in my community?
It depends on the size of your "community." We prefer our Collective to lead micro-communities vs overseeing large cities. For example, we're interested in a Collective in Wicker Park or Lincoln Park vs. Chicago.
