Find your forever place and/or a summer Job!

Come work at a place where we value the experience of sharing food together, and the cultural context of food with diverse audiences.

Ross Creek believes in providing locally produced, high quality, broad appeal food. We have a seasonal menu, which takes advantage of our substantial organic gardens, and we work with local suppliers whenever possible to provide excellent nutrition, taste, and education about healthy and delicious local food. The Centre Chef is dynamic, interested in using local produce (when possible and feasible), loves being part of a team and working with volunteers.

The Centre Chef must have reliable transportation, care about food, work well with people and be extremely clean and organized. You could learn to forage in our woods and fields. Working around the cooking duties for programs and people at Ross Creek, you are excited to teach afterschool programs and other outreach, and make deep connections with local farms and support organisations to reduce food waste and support those affected by food insecurity. As long as you love to cook and to work with people, we welcome your application!

A spirit of positivity, and creativity, a sense of humour, camaraderie, and passion for our work are what we look for.

We are also looking for a summer chef - someone who loves good food as above, but only has the summer to work!
