Taste of the Okanagan Specialty Foods

Website

Taste of the Okanagan Specialty Foods Artisan foods made by hand, in small batches using the finest fruits & veggies grown in the Okanagan. We don't put "JUNK" in our jars! harvest to it’s fullest.

Founded in 1995, Taste of the Okanagan Specialty Foods Inc, is a family run business based in Kelowna, BC, the heart of the Okanagan Valley. We make salsas, chutneys, sauces, dips, salad dressings and more the old fashioned way, by hand, in small batches so we can ensure flavour, quality and most of all... TASTE! We use the finest fruits, berries and veggies grown in the Okanagan Valley, picked at their freshest. We use no preservatives, no additives and no food colourings, so our taste is home grown, just like Grandma used to make when she was in the kitchen instead of on the Golf Course. The quality of our product line is sustained by never compromising the traditional standards of our production. We use our hands, not machines, so we don't bruise or agitate the tender harvest and we put our heart and soul into our production. These artisan foods have a distinctive, well balanced taste with rich fruit and vegetable flavours, subtle herbs and spices and often a hint of Okanagan award winning wines, spirits and ales. We continue to create and develop new products based on our mandate to use the B.C. Our produce comes to us from small, local growers in the Okanagan Valley who share our pursuit for quality. They practice good farming methods and they pick "fresh" and "ripe" ensuring quality in our jars.

Thanksgiving dinner is great and all… but are we secretly just here for the leftovers?

There’s just something about the next-day turkey sandwich that might actually be better than dinner. Especially with a little Cranberry Jalapeño Jelly in there.

We’ll be at the Kelowna Farmers’ Market this Saturday from 8–1 with all the fixings for Thanksgiving dinner... and more importantly, the sandwiches that come after. 🍂

🍑 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. 🍑
