Description
POSITION SUMMARY
This is a seasonal position that begins in late April and typically ends in late summer or mid-fall, as determined by the needs of our programs. A kitchen position at Homeplace, our basecamp just outside of Ely, MN, offers opportunities for culinary adventures paired with summer at the lake. Kitchen staff are responsible for daily food-related planning and preparation, supply management, and kitchen cleanliness. The kitchen is the heart of the basecamp and strives to support a positive and collaborative environment for this Outward Bound site.
On-the-job training early in the season encompasses instruction and skills assessment by the Kitchen Manager to ensure kitchen staff are able to adequately fulfill duties and meet volume needs. Working as a team, the kitchen staff are then expected to execute foodservice and support related sanitation functions while adhering to a strong foundation of safety guidelines and community values to provide nutritious and satisfying meals to our staff and students.
The MN basecamp kitchen is a fully functioning commercial kitchen and supports a wide range of dietary options. We accommodate core meat, vegetarian, and vegan diets, as well as many food allergies and intolerances, through ingenuity and home-style cooking. Our kitchen operates in compliance with Lake County Public Health and the Minnesota Department of Health.
