Hosted by WSU Extension Regional Small Farms Program in partnership with WSU Food Processing Extension and Research team. This course provides basic information about sanitation and Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs) for food plants. CGMPs help to ensure the safety of food. The course walks through the principles of sanitation, sanitation chemicals, employee practices, plant design, and other related topics. Who is this training for? Farmers with value-added products, bakers, acidified foods (jams, jellies, pickles), low-acid foods, meat processors, and more. This training helps small to medium food processors and growers fulfill training FSMA regulations by attending a food safety training every year!
