Food producer training set

Do you make and sell baked goods, home-canned pickles, salsa, jam and jellies? Are you a cottage food producer?

If you are, attend the Cottage Food Producer Food Safety Training on Tuesday, February 26, 1 p.m. – 5 p.m. at the SWWC Service Cooperative in Marshall.  This advanced safe food handling course focuses on aspects of cottage food products including baked, confectionery, dried, fruit preserves and, acid and acidified fruit and vegetables.

You will learn how to produce, package and label a safe food product. 

If you sell more than $5,000 annually, this workshop meets the training requirement to register as a Minnesota cottage food produce. Registration materials available at http://www.extension.umn.edu/food/food-safety/courses/cottage-foods/.
