Prioritizing food safety in your value-added and preserved foods
Join food safety and food preservation experts from the University of Minnesota Extension throughout the year to learn how to safely handle and prepare food. Whether you are a grower, operate a food business, or preserve foods for your own use, these webinars are for you.
Kick off 2024 by attending the Food Safety Foundations webinar series. In this series, you will learn about bacteria that can cause foodborne illness, and how to improve food handling practices in your food business or at home so you can prepare safe food.
Then, apply these safe food handling practices to food preservation methods. Each month learn a new skill or sharpen your existing food preservation knowledge.
Webinars are free and open for all to attend. Registration is required. After registering, you will receive the webinar link.
