🍑 WE'RE HIRING! 🍑

Love local food? Don't mind getting your hands dirty? Have strong opinions about properly stacked boxes?

Taste of the Okanagan is looking for a Seasonal Kitchen Production Assistant to join our team during our busy harvest season.

Part-time | 2-3 days per week
Primarily Mondays, Tuesdays & Thursdays
Kelowna, BC

What you'll be doing:
• Washing and preparing fresh produce
• Following recipes and assisting with production
• Filling, labeling, and packing jars
• Organizing inventory
• Cleaning equipment and work areas
• Helping keep our kitchen running smoothly

This is a physical job. You'll be on your feet most of the day and regularly lifting boxes of produce and finished products. Some days are repetitive, some are fast-paced, and there is always cleaning involved.

We're looking for someone who:
✔ Is reliable and shows up on time
✔ Pays attention to detail
✔ Works well independently and as part of a small team
✔ Isn't afraid of hard work
✔ Takes pride in doing things properly

Experience in food production, commercial kitchens, farming, landscaping, warehousing, or other physically active work is an asset.

FoodSafe is an asset, but not required.

This role is ideal for someone looking for steady part-time work through the summer and fall harvest season. We're hoping to find someone who can grow with us through our busiest months, and offer a season completion bonus for those who do.

Interested?

Send us a message telling us:
• A little about yourself
• Your relevant work experience
• Why you're interested in the position
• Your availability

Small Batch. Big Love. 🍑

Running a business with your mom is kinda wild because one minute you’re discussing inventory and the next minute you’re being told you need more iron and should probably bring a jacket.

But honestly, Taste of the Okanagan wouldn’t be what it is without my mom. She’s the hardest working person I know, the heart behind every jar, and the reason everything we make feels homemade in the best possible way. She taught me that feeding people isn’t just food, it’s love.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms out there. 🌷

Come see us today at the Mother’s Day Market at for their 5th annual Mother's Day Market.✨

Market season is in full bloom 🌷✨

And this weekend we’re doing back-to-back markets for Mother’s Day!

Come grab something delicious for Mom… or yourself, because honestly you deserve a little treat too. 💁‍♀️💕

Saturday 8am-1pm
Sunday 10am-2pm

Small Batch. Big Love. 🩷

🐝 Buzz buzz! This week our little chefs learned all about bees, made a bright spring soup, and checked in on their hungry classroom worms with a fresh snack of veggie scraps. 🪱🍲🌱

Tiny chefs. Tiny worms. Big learning. 💚
