Cashier and Staffing drinks/pastry counter

White Lotus Farms is a unique and inspiring business born out of the values and practices of the Tsogyelgar Buddhist Community, which emphasizes living creatively and meaningfully according to Buddha's teaching on Right Livelihood. This community-driven enterprise blends sustainable farming, artisanal food production, and holistic care products with a commitment to quality and social responsibility. Founded in 2011, White Lotus Farms began from humble origins with a small presence at a local farmer's market and has since evolved into a thriving bakery, creamery, and farm business located in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The business is well-known for its delicious pastries, cheeses, and self-care botanical products. Members of the community have invested considerable time and effort in cultivating skills in farming, cheese making, baking, pastry arts, skincare, and animal husbandry, ensuring that the products offered are crafted with passion, expertise, and integrity.

Today, White Lotus Farms continues to serve Ann Arbor and neighboring areas by providing fresh, high-quality food and wellness products while also supporting charitable causes such as Food Gatherers. In addition to the heart and soul behind the products, this establishment embraces sustainability, community engagement, and education as core components of its mission. By working closely with customers and local partners, White Lotus Farms fosters a welcoming and enriching environment for all.

The available position is for an enthusiastic part-time team member to work at the White Lotus Farm Cart, located at 7217 W. Liberty Rd in Ann Arbor. This role is centered on cashiering and staffing the drinks and pastry counter, delivering excellent customer service, and supporting the daily operations of the farm cart. Working hours are limited to 20 to 36 hours per month, specifically on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with shifts running from 8 am to 2 pm on Wednesdays and 8 am to 3 pm on Saturdays.
