A baked apple tart

Come join your neighbors at the outdoor wood-fired oven at the Old Stone House.

You can bring any dish or recipe — from bread to chicken, from cookies to pie.

You don’t have to share what you bake, but you will find many willing taste-testers! Kids are welcome and generally have a great time. Non-bakers are also welcome to come hang out and volunteer for taste-testing duty!

Firing the oven will start around 9am, and we’ll bake from noon-ish until 4pm. Drop by any time! Keep in mind, when it gets busy there may be a wait of an hour or so until a spot opens up in the oven.

We’ll be standing around outside the entire time, so be sure to dress with that in mind. The weather can be unpredictable. We will bake even if it is cold or raining, as long as it is calm out. However, if it is windy we may cancel.

For this event, neighbor Zeke Goulbourne will lead OSH’s Community Baking Day to prepare food for members of Squad 1, our local firehouse located on Union Street between 6th and 7th Avenues. Zeke has traditionally cooked for members of the firehouse in preparation for the annual 5k Tunnel to Tower Run, which was established in honor of Stephen Stiller, a Squad 1 firefighter who perished in 9/11.

We are inviting members of the meet-up to come and cook with Zeke at OSH’s wood fired oven. You can prepare any of your favorite dishes to share with Squad 1 and other first responders for their evening meal in advance of the run on September 29, and, as always, to share with other meet-up members. There will be foil containers available for dishes prepared for the firefighters. A fire engine will come by to pick up the food donation at 4 pm.

Firing the oven will start around 9am, and we’ll bake from noon-ish until 4pm. Drop by any time! Keep in mind, when it gets busy there may be a wait of an hour or so until a spot opens up in the oven.

We’ll be standing around outside the entire time, so be sure to dress with that in mind. The weather can be unpredictable. We will bake even if it is cold or raining, as long as it is calm out. However, if it is windy we may cancel.

We’re disappointed that we’re not going to be able to revel in the best of autumn for our first Harvest Happy Hour, but with the predicted high winds for tomorrow night, running the oven could be unpredictable and dangerous.

We’ll reschedule another time to enjoy handmade pizza from our wood-fired oven, cocktails courtesy of Fort Hamilton Whiskey, and crisp hard cider pressed from Green-Wood Cemetery’s apples by Proper Cider – surrounded by the beautiful scenery at Washington Park.

Thanks for your support and hope to see you soon!

Our colleagues at MOFAD invite you to participate in Indigenous Roots, a two-part online panel event and cooking demo exploring the crossroads of African American and Native American cuisine

Ubiquitous, but often overlooked, African American and Indigenous American foods are essential to the American experience. Ingredients such as corn, potatoes, tomatoes, and chocolate are pantry staples the world over; and yet their historical significance is often glossed over or forgotten entirely.

Join them on August 5th at 8 pm EST for a virtual panel conversation led by Andi Murphy, host of the Toasted Sister Podcast, that will explore the intersections between these two cultures that came together out of necessity and created a truly American cuisine.

Continue the conversation with us on August 6th at 8 pm EST for a cooking demo with Indigenous chefs Yusuf Bin-Rella, Elena Terry, and Dave Smoke-McCluskey.
