One of Humm’s Three Pillars is “Life is Better; your life is enriched because of your time at Humm.” Our benefit program is founded on that pillar to offer a range of choices for our team to customize their benefit participation in a way most enriching to their unique needs.

Full-time, Year-Round Team Members

We believe that our Humm community is a place where our employees can build safe, prosperous lives. Whatever your life story, national origin, race or religion; whoever you choose to love, whatever your sexual orientation or gender identity is… you are welcome here.

We believe our culture of trust, equality, diversity and inclusion, and overall wellness sets us apart as an employer of choice for Central Oregon. We are careful to hire amazing people that embrace their own and other’s uniqueness. We trust our team to set priorities and ask for help when they need it. We strive to provide leadership, not management, that inspires independence, creativity, passion, and a desire to succeed. Your life outside of work should be better overall because you work at Humm.

Aside from the goodness you feel within our walls, our team welcomes each other for personal development and enrichment outside of work through book clubs, biking excursions, river floats, and more.

“My favorite part about being a Humm-ster is the people that I work with, the environment, and culture that we create. This will be different than almost any place you've ever worked, in the best way. The environment is upbeat and easy-going while still maintaining the drive to work hard.”
- Chris, 4-Year Humm-ster in Maintenance

“Our team is hard working, caring, and committed to Humm. It feels like the chance of a lifetime to be a part of this movement. This winning environment comes from the culture and employees enthusiasm to work together.“
- Tony, 1-Year Humm-ster in Sales

“The environment of Humm is vibrant and open. The people are genuine, caring, and inclusive. Humm encourages creative freedom and supports decision making through inclusive and collaborative improvement efforts.“
- Bryce, 3-Year Humm-ster in Customer Service/Purchasing

Our co-founders, Jamie and Michelle, set out to do business in a way that was true to their vision of the world; a vision of peace, mutual respect, and equality. We make our kombucha to be enjoyed by everyone and strive to follow that vision with our donations.

Our core giving focus is on kids and women’s issues and empowerment, but strive to have a charitable giving program that benefits our community. Last year, Humm donated over $48,000 in product and gear to:

• Shelters & charitable homes
• Community kitchens & food pantries
• Youth athletic and afterschool programs
• Schools
• Adaptive programs and sports
• Family services
• Animal rescue and rehabilitation
• Museums & music collectives
• Police & Firefighters
• Natural resources restoration

In addition to our product donations in 2020, Humm donated a portion of all Taproom sales to The Wildland Firefighter Foundation and The Red Cross Cascades Region to support our fellow Oregonians displaced or devastated by the wildfires.
