The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) announces a new webpage is now available for its Technical Assistance Program.
The CDFA Technical Assistance Program (TAP) provides educational resources to help small-scale produce farms comply with the federal Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule for growing fruits, nuts and vegetables. TAP offers a variety of services to farms needing assistance and resources about food safety practices. TAP partners with University of California Cooperative Extension specialists who are fluent in multiple languages to serve the diversity of farmers across California.

TAP is part of CDFA’s Inspection and Compliance branch in the Division of Inspection Services.
