This job will take the person to on-farm pickups, delivery to top Seattle restaurants, food banks, homes in Seattle suburbs, apartments in Cap Hill, houseboats on Lake Union, and many other places! Depending on the season, it can involve lifting and moving heavy boxes of potatoes as well as Instagram-worthy pints of berries. We work as a team so you will spend time in the warehouse to help us keep things moving, but for the most part, you'll be out on the road making people smile and delivering beautiful fruits and veggies.
We have lots of staff that used to spend time in a kitchen and welcome those re-looking at how to stay involved in food in new ways.
