5,000 REASONS TO CELEBRATE
As we approach our two-year anniversary on October 4th, we're delighted to announce that, as of last week, we have posted 5,000 good food jobs. If you'll join us for a walk down memory lane, you might note that this same time last year, it was our goal to reach 2,000 jobs for our first anniversary. That's an increase of over 50% in one year - a pretty good growth spurt, if we do say so ourselves.
We only envision more good things happening in this sustainable food world, as people become more passionate about their interests in good food, and businesses large and small continue to take root and bloom.
Above all, we are so happy to be a small part of this powerful movement.
Here's to the next 5,000!
Cheers,
Taylor & Dorothy

Kate Medley
Multimedia Storyteller
Whole Foods
We have the urge to sum up Kate's good food job in one word: dreamy. She's got the fairytale spin of having stuck her foot in the door of a large, influential company on the cusp of Michael Pollan's fame. She's got the creative job title and the inspiring day-to-day work of translating that company's mission statement into real people and products. But before your glasses get so steamed up with jealousy that you can't see your computer screen, remember that the grass is always greener. We all have a story to tell. Don't give up on telling yours. Read More
