Online GAPs Half-Day Training Course from UMN Extension

This 3.5 hour fully-online interactive course will provide a deep-dive into Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) on the farm. GAPs are science-based, farm-level practices for keeping fresh produce safe. This training is strongly encouraged for farm owners, workers and gardeners who grow, harvest and pack fresh vegetables for sales to all markets, including at farmers’ markets, CSA, retail, schools, restaurants, or who donate produce to others. 

Trainers will include experienced produce farmers and UMN Extension staff and will cover all aspects of on-farm food safety.  All attendees will be issued certificates of attendance and entered to win a kit with handwashing stand materials. You will receive resources to help you develop a food safety plan and pass a GAP audit if desired.

Register: https://z.umn.edu/MayGAPs2023. Deadline to register May 15, 5:00 pm. Registration is $15 with scholarships available.
