🍽️ About the Volunteer Meal Menu

At Rescue Center Costa Rica, we provide a rotating 2-week meal plan to keep meals balanced, varied, and exciting for our volunteers. Our kitchen staff prepares three meals a day—breakfast, lunch, and dinner—with love and care, using fresh local ingredients whenever possible.

The menu follows a Week 1 / Week 2 rotation, regardless of a volunteer's start date. This helps us stay organized and reduce food waste while ensuring all volunteers enjoy a diverse culinary experience during their stay.

🌱 Dietary Options
All meals are available in vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free versions, and we can accommodate allergies or intolerances with advance notice. Just let our team know during orientation, and we’ll make sure your needs are met.

🍌 Seasonal Variations
Some dishes may change depending on the availability of seasonal produce, but the structure of the menu remains consistent.

📅 Fixed Weekly Schedule
The rotation is set to a calendar schedule—not personalized per volunteer arrival—so everyone shares the same meal experience together, helping foster community and reduce confusion.

If you ever have questions or special dietary requests, our team is happy to help. Buen provecho and thank you for being part of our Rescue Center family! 🦥💚
