Filling our House with Comfort, One Dinner at a Time

The Visiting Chef program is a wildly popular volunteer program for groups of up to ten friends, family members, or co-workers. No professional cooking experience is required and folks have lots of fun! Volunteers provide all the ingredients to make a home-cooked meal or you may cater in from a restaurant for our families (approximately 100 servings). Volunteers will need to arrive in time to prepare their meal in accordance with our meal times. Dinner is at 6 PM, seven days a week.

Please view our Visiting Chef Guidelines for more information. If you have any questions, please reach our team at 352.374.4404 ext. 222. 

If you and your group would like to participate in our Visiting Chef Dinner Program, but simply don’t have time to cook, contact our Hospitality Manager to help coordinate catering instructions.
