Local food entrepreneurs are a real benefit to their local community and economy. Food safety in their business is critical to success.
A new publication developed by North Dakota State University Extension and K-State Research and Extension called Food Safety Best Practices for Local Food Entrepreneurs outlines best practices to maintain safety standards. Always consult state regulations to be in compliance.
