ON THE CREAMERY FLOOR:
Our small, artisanal creamery is looking for someone to train in all aspects of milk processing. Our careful systems and attention to detail produce some of the very best dairy products in the world and we’re looking for someone to learn them and continue the excellence.
The work of making amazing glass-bottled milk and super-premium ice cream isn’t always glamourous, but it is satisfying and interesting.
Duties include assembling and operating dairy processing equipment, milk testing and analysis, ice cream production, bottling, and the cleaning that goes with set-up and take-down every day.
Requirements:
previous work experience mastering skills and meeting high expectations
some college, or personally-driven continuing education
reliability and an easy-going, let’s-get-this-done attitude
a history of solid teamwork
Appreciation of the music of the 1980s is a plus.
Approximately 35 hrs. per week. $$17-19/hour to start, plus milk and ice cream for your household. Steady, year-round work with some seasonal variability (slightly fewer hours in the summer, more in the late fall and winter) Overtime after 8 hours/day. 7:30 until we’re done, around 3:30 or 4:00 on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Shorter day on Wednesday and Friday. No nights or weekends.

We are looking for a long-term employee who will find the work here interesting and fulfilling. Our crew operates without ego–everyone just wants to help each other and make a great product. If this is also how you operate, we’d like to talk with you.

IN THE OFFICE:
Our operation runs on Excel pages and Quickbooks files under the captainship of our office manager. The position is part-time and somewhat flexible–taking orders and creating the production sheets on Monday and Thursday mornings, other tasks can flex. We’re looking for someone who is pleasant, easy-going, reliable, comfortable working in a farm setting, and appreciative of local food systems. $18 to start, plus milk and ice cream.
