The Food Safety Dish por Local Food Safety Collaborative

Notas del episodio

In recent years, wildfire disasters in the United States have prompted many growers to ask questions about how to navigate post-wildfire food safety concerns with their crops and livestock. We talk with wildfire resilience expert Amber Schat-Kenig, shepherd & butcher Dylan Boeken, and Community Alliance with Family Farmers' (CAFF) Farmer Support Services Director Kali Feiereisel on the collaborative resource from CAFF and NFU of the same name, "What to Know About Wildfire & Food Safety." The resource aims to provide guidance about common concerns, how to assess potential impacts, and what remediation and mitigation options are available. This podcast episode digs a bit deeper and elaborates on the science and recommendations of the resource.
