Prepared Food Packaging Assistant

Green Top Farms was founded by a farmer-turned-public-school-teacher who was troubled by the lack of fresh, nutritious foods for many New York families. For the last ten years we have built a high volume food service, catering and delivery business. Throughout that time we have remained deeply involved in working to provide better food resources and education for school children, food pantries, and the broader community. We have also pursued our vision for a more sustainable and equitable food system. We spent the majority of our energies during the COVID Pandemic serving NYC City Agencies in the provision of food for the underserved, as well as non-profit agencies throughout NYC.Our mission is to build a more sustainable and equitable food system, starting by reconnecting consumers and local farmers. We believe the results of strengthening that connection are better nutrition, more tasty food, greater social justice, and reduced environmental impacts. Our menus reflect this attention to bringing nutritious, delicious food to those who need it most.What You’ll Do:May be stationed in the refrigerated kitchen prepping or packaging ready to eat foods DOEFollowing work orders and instructions from shift leads and chefsSetting up and breaking down station with necessary supplies following food safety guidelinesPrepare dishes and prepping ingredients including cleaning, chopping, putting together recipes at a high volume using proper PPE - cutting gloves, sanitation, cutting boards.Maintaining high sanitary and organizational standardsComply with all company policies, rules & regulations regarding safety, personal hygiene (GMP’s), operational methods and food safety guidelinesWorking with speed and efficiencyWho You Are:Team playerFood Prep, Commissary kitchen, knife skills, experience working in a high volume kitchen (<1 year)Ability to carry over 50 pounds and remain standing for long periods of timeComfortable working in a refrigerated areaBilingual, Spanish a plus #J-18808-Ljbffr Green-Top-Farms
