Choices 2010 is holding a conference on March 10-11, 2010 at the Kellogg Hotel and Conference Center in East Lansing. This year's conference theme is Collaboration: There's Room at the Table. This annual conference is known for its idea of being the “conference that celebrates food, health and collaboration.”
On Thursday, March 11th one of the breakout sessions is Food Safety from Farm to Plate. This presentation will be lead by Jan Sietz, Eileen Haraminac, and Phillip Tocco from MSU Extension. All three presenters have a strong background in nutrition and agriculture and hope to educate workshop members in food safety.Participants will learn to "explain the importance of purchasing food from reputable supplier, define the HACCP food safety process and describe when HACCP is to be followed by food processors, and list procedures consumers need to follow to ensure and maintain the safety of foods purchased."
This conference is a great opportunity for anyone to come and learn about current food issues. This workshop too is highly recommended. For more information about registration or any other questions, please visit the Choices Conference website at:
