Introducing ReWORK: Our New Freelance Program for Moms

Moms juggle a million jobs—project manager, personal chef, chauffeur, CEO of the household—often all before 9 a.m. And these days, now more than ever, they’re balancing it all on top of a full-time job.

In 1975, less than half of moms with kids under 18 were in the workforce. Today, that number is closer to 71%, according to the Department of Labor. And yet, the challenge of balancing work and family hasn’t gotten any easier—especially with rising childcare costs and ever-evolving career paths.

For years, we've shared recipes that make dinnertime easier for busy parents (sheet-pan meals, one-pot wonders, 30-minute lifesavers) because we know that getting a meal on the table is just one of a hundred things on your to-do list.

But we also know that for many moms, the bigger challenge isn’t just figuring out what’s for dinner—it’s balancing a full-time job on top of it all, or figuring out how to step back into the workforce after time away.

That’s why we’re launching ReWORK, a new program designed to create flexible and purposeful freelance and part-time opportunities for moms looking to re-engage with their careers.

Through ReWORK, women across the country can contribute to the future of Food52 and Schoolhouse in a variety of roles—customer experience, marketing, graphic design, copywriting, social media, production, and more—on a schedule that works for them.

Whether you're looking to build new experience, keep your skills fresh, or ease back into the workforce, we’d love to hear from you.
