Did you know that Michigan produce growers enjoy more on-farm produce safety support than growers in other states? Michigan is the only state with a Produce Safety Technician program dedicated to providing on-farm technical education for produce farmers. Better yet, technicians are a free, voluntary, confidential, non-regulatory resource.
