Food Safety for Poultry & Rabbits Producers

-
In-Person

TBD
Laconia, NH 03246
United States


New Hampshire producers can sell poultry and rabbits (up to 20,000 poultry and 1,000 rabbits per calendar year) directly to NH restaurants without USDA inspection. For producers to legally sell their products in this way, they must complete this initial 3-session certification course with UNH Cooperative Extension and recertify after five years. The class is open to anyone who would like to learn about these topics but does not necessarily want to sell to restaurants. This class will be helpful to those who want to sell poultry & rabbit to the public.

Topics include:
  • Regulations on selling poultry & rabbits
  • Facilities & Equipment
  • Health of Animals
  • Cleaning & Sanitizing
  • Personal Hygiene
  • Temperature Control
  • Labeling & Recordkeeping
  • Steps to Certification
Guest speakers include:

Royann Bossidy, New Hampshire DHHS, Food Protection Section 
Thomas Collaro, USDA Food Safety & Inspection Services 
Ann Hamilton, Food Safety Field Specialist from UNH Extension 
Katrina Klobucher, Livestock Production Field Specialist from UNH Extension
