About Dam Good™ English Muffins:

Dam Good™ English Muffins is a woman-owned, family operated wholesale bakery located in Peekskill, NY that has been in business for four years. Our current product line includes four varieties of sourdough English muffins; "Original White (vegan)," "Multigrain (vegan)," "Cinnamon Swirl (vegan)," and "Whole Wheat." You can find us at our online store, local Mom & Pop shops around the NY Tri-State area, and home delivery services Fresh Direct, Hudson Milk Co., Headwater Food Hub, Field Goods, and Two Birds Artisan Provisions.

With a brand name inspired by the New Croton Dam in Cortlandt, New York, our artisan Dam Good™ English Muffins are "Handmade for Goodness Sake!" with all-natural, non-GMO, soy-free ingredients, no preservatives, and a blend of starters–which gives them a mild sourdough aroma and taste. Our company slogan, ‘Every One Is Different’ has a double meaning in that not only is each of our English muffins different, but that we cherish the differences between us, and embrace the diversity among us - within our own workforce, and beyond.

We are looking for a hard worker who is excited about our English muffins, and making a difference in our community, by becoming a part of our Dam Good™ team! Below you will find details about our current Bread Baker position.
