Open Forum for Small Scale Food Processors

• Friday, March 19, 2021, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Ask Questions... Get Answers!

Based on the high level of interest from those who attended the recent Small-Scale Food Processing Workshop, we are now organizing this Open Forum as a follow up. This Forum is open not only to the Workshop attendees, but to all current and potential food entrepreneurs!

The Forum will be an informal event in which active audience participation will be encouraged for networking, learning and exchange of ideas. Participants are invited to bring questions and get answers specific to their operation.

Our first speaker will be John M. Luker, Assistant Director, Division of Food Safety & Inspection, NYS Department of Agriculture & Markets. He will share his expertise in the world of regulatory and licensing requirements.

Our second speaker will be Laura Fox O’Sullivan, President, The Commissary: Downtown Kitchen Incubator & Vice President, Rochester Downtown Development Corporation. She will discuss the process of using their commercial kitchen and the services it offers.

Additionally, Shannon Prozeller, Cornell University Food Venture Center, will be available to answer questions regarding the recipe approval and scheduled process to make sure that your food product is safe. 

Registration is open until the event starts. Upon registration you will receive a confirmation email with instructions for joining. Attendance if free.

You can submit questions in advance by contacting Jarmila Haseler at 585-678-8122 / email jh954@cornell.edu
