The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) Produce Safety Program (PSP) will host a series of quarterly PSP Portal Virtual Training Workshops through Fall 2025. 

The virtual workshops will include a presentation that provides an overview of the CDFA Produce Safety Program and PSP Portal. The first hour will offer live training tutorials on how to navigate the PSP Portal with the remaining time reserved for a Q&A session and one-on-one technical support.

In Fall 2024, CDFA PSP hosted a series of PSP Portal Training Workshops in person across California and virtually. An additional virtual webinar was hosted on January 28, 2025 and the workshop series will continue to be offered to California produce growers and handlers for the remainder of 2025.

What is the PSP Portal? The PSP Portal is a cloud-based farm data repository platform that allows California produce farmers and growers to view their own farm information and have on-demand access to their digital produce safety inspection reports related to their own farms. In addition, the PSP Portal provides resources to support on-farm compliance with the requirements of the federal Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule and provide a convenient way for California growers to connect with PSP staff. The new technology allows the Produce Safety Program to focus inspection efforts based on food safety risk factors to help ensure a safe and quality food supply for all consumers of California fresh produce in the state, nationally and beyond.
