This is a one day program (Costs $20.00 per person) geared to small scale food producers – the general Farmers Market vendor may not  to find it applicable to their work but anyone operating at a slightly higher level or distributing through other outlets should find it worthwhile.

Following the workshop, there is access to free on site consultation and possible funding for facility upgrading.

If anyone is interested in more information, please feel free to call me.
