Food Safety Conference and Farm Fresh Directory

Food Safety Conference and Farm Fresh Directory

With an update of several upcoming items, here is Colorado Department of Agriculture Marketing Specialist Wendy White with a reminder of a conference beginning tomorrow.

White: "The Rocky Mountain Food Safety Conference May 23-24 at Johnson and Wales University in Denver. Information is available online at coloradoproud.org. We have a link to the event there. It is a really great program for anyone who is interested in food safety topics within Colorado."

She continues with news about the annual Farm Fresh Directory.

White: "Every year the Colorado Department of Agriculture publishes the Colorado Farm Fresh Directory. It is our most popular consumer publication that lists farmers markets, roadside stands, u-picks, wineries, agritourism activities, farms and ranches selling direct to the public. We will be printing 110,000 copies for distribution across the state. They will be available at various Chamber of Commerces, welcome centers, libraries, extension offices at the beginning of June. We'll also have it available on our website at coloradoagriculture.com and there is also a free mobile app for Android and Apple devices."

She also reminds folks to check the CDA's website to see when their local farmers market will be up and running for the season.
