About: Chef Bill Bracken (our founder and culinary director) and his team are in the kitchen every week preparing the food needed for our feeding events as well as for nonprofits throughout Orange County. Duties in the kitchen include chopping veggies, cooking, dish washing, packaging, and anything else that our Chefs need done for the week.
We offer plenty of volunteer opportunities on multiple days throughout the week. Most days and hours are from Monday through Friday, 9am to 4pm. Spots do fill up quickly so be sure to sign up as soon as possible after receiving an email from bracken's kitchen.
After completing this volunteer opportunity, please let us know if you are interested in becoming a regular volunteer (weekly commitment). All that we ask is that you obtain your ServeSafe Food Handlers certificate by visiting the following link:
https://www.servsafe.com/access/SS/Catalog/ProductDetail/SSECT6CA
(Copy and paste in URL)
You will be asked to complete the online course and pay $15 and it should take about two hours to complete. While there are many food handling courses online to choose from, our founder, Bill Bracken, has found that the above is the most comprehensive. If you have trouble opening the course, try using Firefox, as this has solved problems for some of our other volunteers.
The kitchen is located at 15554 Producer Lane, Huntington Beach, CA 92647
You can park in the spaces in front of our door, along the fence in the far end of the parking lot, or on Producer Lane.
***Kitchen Guidelines:***
1) Wear close-toed shoes
2) Wear a hat or you will need to wear one of our hairnets
3) No tank-tops
4)Please email the Volunteer Coordinator your Food Handling Certificate ahead of time or bring a copy with you if you have one.
5) The kitchen work can be strenuous and physically demanding. Please be prepared to work hard. You may need to lift 25 pounds and you will be standing the whole time.
6) We rely on our volunteers to be able to send out the food that other nonprofits rely on. Please notify us in advance if you will not be able to stay for the entire duration of this volunteer slot.
For any other questions or concerns, please send an email to volunteer@brackenskitchen.com
