Remember, training is required every three years. Our newsletter will keep you informed of workshops and other cottage food news.
Do you make and sell baked goods, home-canned pickles, salsa, jam or jelly?
This advanced course focuses on food safety practices for all processes covered under the cottage food law including drying, baking, confections, jams and jellies, acid and acidified fruit and vegetables and fermentation. You will learn how to produce, package, label, store and transport a safe food product. And food safety experts will be available to answer your questions.
By attending a Zoom webinar or taking our online course, you will meet the tier 2 ($5,001 to $78,000 in sales) training requirement of the Minnesota Department of Agriculture to register as a cottage food producer.
