Wisconsin Agriculture Board Sets Hearings on Food Rules
The Wisconsin state Board of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection will hold public hearings on tightening rules for unpackaged bulk foods to curb contamination. The department launched a Wisconsin farm products campaign titled Something Special from Wisconsin, featuring tastings of potatoes, cranberry cocktails, and Door County cherries. About 150 people from producer groups and media attended an outdoor meal unveiling the campaign. Secretary La Verne Ausman described it as an umbrella theme for all of agriculture. A film by Waldbilling & Besteman was shown to teach producers how to use the slogan in advertising.
