Our aim is simple: to bring people together around a shared table.

By attending Beechworth Cook Book Club, you agree to these event guidelines, which help us create a safe, welcoming and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Bringing a Dish

Each guest is asked to bring a dish from the featured cookbook to share with fellow attendees.

When booking, you'll nominate whether you're bringing an entrée, main or dessert and provide details of your chosen recipe. We may occasionally contact you to help balance the menu and avoid too many duplicates.

Please bring any serving utensils, platters or bowls needed for your dish.

Food Sharing & Allergies

Beechworth Cook Book Club is a community food-sharing event. Dishes are prepared by attendees in home kitchens and are not supplied by a commercial caterer.

Please provide ingredient and allergen information when registering your dish and clearly identify any common allergens where possible.

Guests with allergies, intolerances or dietary requirements attend and consume food at their own discretion. While we encourage clear ingredient information and safe food handling practices, we cannot guarantee that dishes are free from allergens or cross-contamination.

Please email beechworthcookbookclub@gmail.com if you have a serious allergy.

Food Preparation

We ask all participants to prepare, transport and serve food responsibly.

Please:

Prepare food in a clean and hygienic environment.
Use fresh ingredients suitable for consumption.
Transport food safely.
Keep hot foods hot and cold foods chilled where practical.
Follow general food safety practices when handling and serving food.
The majority of food preparation should be completed before arrival. Venue kitchen facilities are available for reheating, finishing and plating dishes only.

Drinks

Depending on the event, drinks may be available for purchase, supplied by a local producer, or guests may be invited to BYO.

Where BYO is permitted, guests are responsible for consuming alcohol responsibly and in accordance with Victorian liquor laws. Alcohol must not be supplied to minors.

Looking After Our Venue

We are grateful to gather in community spaces that make these events possible.

Guests are asked to treat the venue, equipment and facilities with care and to report any accidental damage to an organiser as soon as possible.

Photography

Photos and videos may be taken during the event and used on Beechworth Cook Book Club social media channels, website and promotional material.

If you would prefer not to appear in photographs, please let an organiser know when you arrive.

Tickets & Cancellations

Tickets are generally non-refundable.

If you can no longer attend, you are welcome to transfer your ticket to another person. Refund requests may be considered in exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the organisers.

If an event is cancelled by Beechworth Cook Book Club, ticket holders will be notified and offered an appropriate refund or transfer option.

Community Expectations

Beechworth Cook Book Club is built on generosity, inclusion and respect.

We welcome people of all backgrounds, cooking abilities and experience levels. We ask all guests to contribute positively to the atmosphere of the event and treat fellow attendees, volunteers, organisers and venue staff with kindness and respect.

Liability

Participation in Beechworth Cook Book Club is voluntary.

By attending, guests acknowledge that they are participating in a community food-sharing event and accept responsibility for their own health, wellbeing and personal property.

To the extent permitted by law, Beechworth Cook Book Club, its volunteers, organisers and venue partners are not liable for any illness, allergic reaction, injury, loss or damage arising from participation in the event.

Changes to Events

From time to time, we may need to make changes to an event, including the venue, timing, format or featured cookbook. Where possible, attendees will be notified in advance.

Thank you for helping us create a table where everyone feels welcome.
