Baking Apprenticeships

Founded in 1997, Orchard Hill Breadworks is a small, wood-fired artisan bakery in southwest New Hampshire. We have a focus on hearth-baked, naturally leavened breads, but we produce a wide variety of high-quality baked goods for both retail and wholesale. For more information about our bakery, visit our website.

In addition to providing bread for our region, we strive to serve our community in other ways as well. We support other local producers by using and selling their eggs, milk, cream, butter, and vegetables. We collaborate with schools and other educational organizations, hosting field trips and sharing what we do. Learning and improvement remain two of the most satisfying aspects of our work.

Our apprentices are given the opportunity to learn every aspect of wood-fired baking, from dough process to oven firing and baking. Baking experience is not required, but experience with manual work is helpful and recommended.

The ideal candidate is energetic, resilient, self-reliant, gets along well in a team setting, and is comfortable with long hours, heavy lifting and a fast-paced work environment. Work includes all aspects of bakery operations including packing, cleaning, and stocking ingredients.

Apprenticeships begin on June 1, 2017, September 1, 2017, and January 1, 2018, and run for one year. Room and board provided.
