Good Food Jobs is a gastro-job search tool, designed to link people looking for meaningful food work with the businesses that need their energy, enthusiasm, and intellect. We post opportunities with farmers and food artisans, policy makers and purveyors, retailers and restaurateurs, economists, ecologists, and more.
the gastrognomes is a blog for food lovers who want to put their passions to work. We profile the most interesting, engaging, and unlikely food professionals that we find, and we publish them here to inspire you.
NICE THINGS PEOPLE SAY
Thanks for creating such a magnificent and bad-ass website.
- Gracie, GFJ Fan
We had many, many well qualified candidates as a result of posting on your site. It's quite obviously 100 steps above posting on other sites.
- Laura, Job Poster
We have indeed received more applications since this was posted on Good Food Jobs than we had since we began posting the position on various listservs.
- Christine, Job Poster
We're so glad to be of service.

IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY . . .
that we were sending out our first newsletter.
100 Weeks later, here we are. Still standing, still sending, and endlessly committed to building up this community that we believe in.
Thank for your time and attention every Tuesday. Now let's see if you pass our quiz: You know you're a true gastrognome when . . .
-
you got our emails before the site was even launched (yes, there were about 4,000 of you).
-
Monday used to be your favorite day of the week (in May 2011, we switched to Tuesday newsletters).
-
you've submitted at least one of the testimonials that we update each week (on the left column).
-
you think of the gastrognomes that we feature each week on the blog as celebrities (and who's to say they're not? See Andrea's interview below!)
-
you get email alerts sent to your inbox each day, and you have your calendar marked for the next Live Chat.
-
you always respond with feedback when we ask for it, and this week will be no different . . .
Stay tuned for our next milestone, when we reach 4,000 jobs posted on the site. We're at 3,860, and coincidentally, we have 3,700 facebook fans. Let's tip both those scales at once: help us spread the word and stay tuned to the progress on Twitter (@goodfoodjobs) with #GFJ4000.
Cheers,
Taylor & Dorothy
Co-Founders, Good Food Jobs
