Greetings Gastronomes,
Before we launched the official Good Food Jobs site in October 2010, many folks asked us, "Do you really think there are that many good food jobs out there?" Yes, we responded, we did. And yes, we still do.
This week we'll pass an incredible milestone: only eight months after our launch we will surpass 1,000 good food jobs posted. We're confident that the next 1,000 will come even more quickly as the word spreads, the movement grows, and as more devoted gastronomes make strides to work in good food.
We look forward to exploring the next 1,000 opportunities with you.
Taylor & Dorothy
Co-Founders, Good Food Jobs

John Suscovich
The Food Cyclist
foodcyclist.com
We were fortunate to meet John during last year’s New Amsterdam Market season, on what was unfortunately one of the worst days of the year to be outdoors. Through the freezing rain, his warm smile was enough to persuade us into a photo op for Brooklyn Bread. As you’ll discover, working behind the camera is a talent from his previous career, and not one that you would necessarily associate with bicycling or farming. But these days, people all over the world are redefining career associations with their good food jobs, and John is the perfect example of someone on a journey to do just that. Meet the Food Cyclist.
