MSU Extension Agrifood Safety provides free, voluntary, and confidential services and resources to prepare fresh produce growers in Michigan for compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule.
On-Farm Readiness Reviews give you the opportunity to walk through your operation with a small team of produce safety experts and discuss what you can do on your farm to meet the Produce Safety Rule requirements. We also provide Produce Safety Alliance (PSA) Grower Trainings and an Online Produce Safety Supervisor Training for comprehensive produce safety training.
