current Food Shed Co-op job openings

Food Shed Co-op aspires to be a neighborhood destination and a place to call home for our customers and associates. Our mission is to create a local food cooperative promoting a healthy, ethical, and resilient community. Our core values are to promote and foster better food choices, cultivate and strengthen the local economy, inspire and empower the community, and champion environmentally responsible practices.

We are a community-owned food store specializing in local foods, emphasizing produce, bulk foods, and in-house-made ready-to-eat foods. We provide high-quality, exceptional customer service, nutrition education, and community outreach. Our concept is driven first and foremost by local foods, which account for up to a quarter of our sales. We will provide a simple and efficient shopping experience and staff our stores with genuinely kind, interested, and helpful associates – who want to sell delicious food!

The Food Shed Co-op is dedicated to the principles of equal employment opportunity in any term, condition, or privilege of employment. We do not discriminate against applicants or associates based on age, race, sex, color, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or any other status protected by state or local law. This prohibition includes unlawful harassment based on any of these protected classes. Unlawful harassment includes verbal or physical conduct that substantially interferes with an individual’s work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment. This policy applies to all associates, including managers, supervisors, co-workers, and non-associates such as customers, clients, vendors, consultants, etc.  The company will make reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with known disabilities unless doing so would result in an undue hardship to the company. This policy governs all aspects of employment, including selection, job assignment, compensation, discipline, termination, and access to benefits and training. The company prohibits retaliation against any associate for filing a complaint under this policy or assisting in a complaint investigation.

We have begun building our team to staff our community-owned store. We are looking for people who love food and are authentic to local agriculture and community. Department managers will be the first group brought on board, and then other staff as we approach our Spring Grand Opening.
