Adult Job Training

We produce gourmet granolas and now hummus, we sell them at farmers markets and we package coffees and other products as a means of providing paid, transitional employment for refugees.  

Youth Job Training

Our Refugee Youth Program is a year-long job readiness and hands-on training program geared toward high-school-aged refugee youth. The program includes both a classroom component where the youth learn about the unspoken rules of the American workplace and an experiential component where youth intern at jobs in our kitchen or with businesses in the community.

Afghan Women Entreprenuership

In 2023, we launched a food entrepreneurship program for Afghan women to come together, cook, socialize, and learn how to start a food business. They experimented with menus in our kitchen, learned business and marketing skills, and practiced creating boxed lunches and catering small events. The women are excited by the possibilities that this new business venture holds.

Farmers Market

This training program is for refugee youth and adults who are interested in gaining a broad experience interacting with the American public to prepare them for careers in front-of-house hospitality and customer service.
