Food Safety Begins on the Farm
|
Mission Statement: One of the most important priorities of Billingsgate Farm is food safety. Both Farmers Pete & Lynn, and all of their employees working at Billingsgate Farm, are tremendously committed to producing and marketing a safe product through GAP that focuses on the highest standards of food safety and quality. These safe practices include ensuring that there is no safety risk present in areas where the produce is grown, processed and packed, and that any risk of contamination of the product is avoided. We also make sure that insects, rodents, birds, and pests pose no risk of contamination to our fine products. It is also a priority that all of our employees follow healthy practices when working at our farm. Our mission is to make sure all information and paperwork is documented in a reliable, efficient and ethical manner.
