COOKBOOK SWAP
November 13, 2026 at Preserved in Oakland, CA
Join us for a free community event bringing together passionate home cooks looking to refresh their cookbook collections!
TIME & LOCATION
• Friday November 13, 2026 from 6 pm - 7 pm
• Preserved, 5540 College Ave, Oakland CA 94618
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Bring one well loved cookbook that you are ready to pass along! Be prepared to give a quick introduction to your book at the beginning of the swap (ie: your sales pitch on why someone should choose your book).
We will randomly draw one participant's name to start us off and they will get to choose the first book. Then, the person whose cookbook is chosen, will get to pick second, and so on until all cookbooks have been swapped. The more enticing your cookbook, the better your chance is to get your desired book! This is a recurring event, giving you lots of chances to keep your cookbook library fresh.
PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME, NAME DRAW AND SWAPPING BEGINS PROMPTLY AT 6:15!
PLEASE NOTE:
While this is a free event, we ask that all attendees register as we have limited space available. Please be mindful and let us know if you need to cancel so we can offer your spot to someone else.

Preserved is a fermentation-focused kitchen shop and classroom in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood, right on the College Ave commercial strip. The front of the space functions as a retail store stocked with pantry staples, preserving tools and general cooking gear, so walking in for a class means passing shelves of jars, baking equipment, vinegars and grains. more...
