Host

At Purdy's Farmer & the Fish, hospitality begins with care — for our guests, for the food, and for every detail that shapes the experience of an evening. We're looking for a part-time Host who understands that truly memorable hospitality is personal. Someone who can read a room, anticipate needs before they're spoken, and create a sense of warmth and ease from the moment guests walk through the door. Located on the 22-acre Purdy Land Trust in North Salem, NY inside a restored 18th century home dating back to 1775, Farmer & the Fish is a Michelin-selected farm-to-table restaurant built around serving exceptionally fresh, high-quality food. Our four-acre farm supplies the restaurant with produce harvested seven days a week and brought directly into the kitchen, allowing us to serve ingredients at their absolute peak. From greenhouse-grown greens and herbs to vegetables harvested hours before service, everything we do is rooted in freshness, seasonality, and attention to detail — and we're looking for someone who brings that same level of care to hospitality. What Hospitality Means Here At Purdy's Farmer & the Fish, hosting is more than managing reservations and seating charts.
