Designing a Wash/pack with Produce Safety in Mind – WSDA

Do you run a small, diversified farming operation? Do you have post-harvest bottlenecks or pain points? Are you planning improvements to a produce wash/pack facility? Join WSDA Regional Markets and Produce Safety teams for a virtual workshop on “Designing a Wash/Pack with Produce Safety in Mind.” Participants will leave the workshop with an understanding of the basic components of wash/pack design and how to find ways to increase post-harvest operational efficiency and produce safety. In this 1-hour interactive session we will cover:

• Understanding wash/pack “zones”
• Choosing materials/equipment/tools
• Designing for flow of people, product, water, and waste
• Writing a Standard Operating Procedure
