Quality Control Chef - Green Top Farms : Job Details

Green Top Farms was founded by a farmer-turned-public-school-teacher troubled by the lack of fresh, nutritious foods for many New York families. We have built a high-volume food service, catering, and delivery business for the last seven years. 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-19 pandemic serving NYC City Agencies in providing food for the underserved and 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 Youll Do
