Bakery crew member
Forage Market is looking for both part time and full time bakers.
For twelve years Forage has been making exceptional bagels in our wood-fired oven. Our ingredients are simple, flour, water, barley malt, and salt. Although our ingredients are simple our process is unique. Our bagels are leavened with sourdough cultures, aged in a retarder, boiled, and then baked in a wood-fired oven. Forage bagels have been named as some of the best bagels in the country by Saveur, and Food and Wine Magazines.
The bakers also make a variety of laminated pastries, cookies, muffins, scones, and seasonal specials. We work in a light-filled open bakery space working as a team through most of the routines of the day with smaller parts of the day spent working alone.
We currently have openings for part and full time bakers. This opportunity could be great for someone with baking experience looking for a long term commitment, or someone new to baking who is interested in giving it a try!
