Grain & Community Operations Lead

Why join Honoré?

Honoré Farm and Mill is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, dedicated to restoring and strengthening the relationship between people and the land through regenerative farming practices, the cultivation of heritage grains and experiential education. We do so by honoring agricultural practices that revitalize the health of our communities while building resilience into our dynamic food system to benefit future generations to come.

Do you enjoy bringing order to many moving parts, working with people, and seeing the practical results of your work each day?

The Grain & Community Operations Lead keeps Honoré Farm and Mill's daily operations moving—from receiving grain and fulfilling orders to managing inventory, coordinating deliveries, running farmers market operations, and supporting community events. This person will play a central role in making the new Granary and Millhouse a reliable, welcoming hub where locally grown grain moves efficiently from farmers to customers and communities.

This is an active, hands-on position requiring regular in-person work at Honoré’s San Rafael facility and throughout the Bay Area. Working closely with the Operations Manager, School Food & Market Development Lead, and wider Honoré team, the Operations Lead will coordinate the products, equipment, supplies, schedules, and people needed to keep the organization running smoothly.

The role is well suited to someone who takes initiative, solves problems calmly, and can move confidently between detailed logistical work and warm interaction with customers, vendors, volunteers, and community partners. The right person will take ownership of multiple priorities, anticipate what needs to happen next, and find satisfaction in making sure the work gets done well.
