Company description

The Humble Loaf is a micro-bakery run out of a licensed home kitchen. The bakery focuses on making artisanal sourdough bread with the addition of yeasted breads and sweets. I am passionate about sourcing as many ingredients as locally as possible through the seasons of southern Maine. The bakery currently attends and sells at one farmers and is looking to grow.

Job description

I have been a 1 woman operation for going on 4 years and now it is finally time to add someone to enable further growth.

Summer is the busiest time of year and that means wearing lots of hats in the kitchen.

-Processing fresh herbs, vegetables, and fruits to make into mixes for breads and desserts (includes scaling ingredients)

-mixing and scaling bread, scone, and cookie dough

-washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen

-helping to sell at markets and events if interested

You will get a unique experience working for the bakery. Because it is in a home there are many fun quirks, including: interacting with two cute dogs (outside of the kitchen space), getting creative with limited space, and enjoying a low stress environment.

Because you will be my first employee, you will have the opportunity to help shape the role.

Compensation

this position is: hourly, $15-20/hr
