Taproot Kitchen is growing! We are accepting more and more catering events because of many satisfied clients who are recommending our services. As we look ahead to our next season of gleaning fresh, local produce and goods, we recognize a need to add to our diverse and committed kitchen staff in order to better serve our clients. As a result, we are reaching out to our community to find a special, unique individual who would like to join our team. If you know of someone who might be interested and would like to hear more about this opportunity, please share our “help wanted” post below.
