There are a lot of people who would like to add value to their products and extend their marketing season by processing their fruits and vegetables into products that can be stored for longer times. The state of Kentucky has a program that allows people to process and certain types of foods in their own kitchens, following good food safety practices, and then sell the processed foods without needing to do the processing in a separate, licensed facility. Do you think this would be a good program for Wisconsin? I'd like to see a discussion on this, and if there are others who like the idea, we can start trying to mobilize support for this type of program. Here's more information on the Kentucky programs:
