What’s FSMA?
FSMA, the Food Safety Modernization Act, was passed to provide science-based guidance to producers, processors, manufacturers, and others involved in bringing consumable farm products to market on practices intended to reduce foodborne illnesses.
If your farm grows produce for human consumption, FDA requires at least one staff member be trained in an FDA approved food safety training. (All staff handling produce should be trained on-farm in food safety procedures annually.)
