We're Hiring!

We are committed to using high quality, organic ingredients and work with many local farmers to source these. Our prepared foods include soups, salads, sandwiches, flatbreads, and much more. Everything features a long list of local, seasonal ingredients.

We are dedicated to creating an environment for our team to thrive. We offer great pay and benefits including paid vacation/sick days, retirement plan, and health insurance. Here are some more specifics about current opportunities:
