Consent-First Potluck Coordination Board

Build an accessible shared board that lists meal roles, approximate portions, ingredients, dietary notes, serving needs, arrival temperatures, and whether the contributor wants leftovers returned. Include bring nothing and help on site as equal participation choices.

01

Make it personal without making it generic

Use the group's familiar dish language and add the host's specific oven, refrigerator, and serving limits.

Presentation

Print the one-page host view on cream paper with each voluntary role connected by a fine brass line.

02

Check the practical fit

Space
The board is digital with one optional printed host page and no permanent physical footprint.
Skill
The organizer should maintain accurate permissions, summarize changes, and state uncertainty clearly.
Maintenance
Close editing after the event and retain no dietary or contact information longer than needed.
Accessibility
Use keyboard-friendly fields, screen-reader labels, high contrast, plain text, and phone-sized controls.
Sustainability
Coordinate realistic quantities, reusable serving pieces, and explicit leftover destinations to reduce duplication.
Timing
Open the board early enough for choices but set a calm confirmation date before final shopping.
