Featured Speaker: Gretchen L. Wall
Produce Safety Alliance Coordinator & Extension Associate
Department of Food Science
Cornell University, Ithaca, NY
"Impacts of The Food Safety Modernization Act Produce Safety Rule on Aquaponics Producers"
Since 2011, Gretchen has been the coordinator for the Produce Safety Alliance (PSA), a cooperative agreement between the USDA, FDA, and Cornell University. The PSA is focused on developing a science-based, on-farm food safety education and training program for fresh fruit and vegetable farmers and regulatory personnel. This curriculum will help prepare farmers to meet the first ever produce safety regulation promulgated by the FDA as part of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) and will aid in providing a consistent food safety message to growers, educators, regulatory personnel, and the produce industry. Gretchen is also an active member of the National Good Agricultural Practices Program team and assists in workshop development, delivery, and outreach efforts for on-farm food safety to fruit and vegetable farmers in New York. Gretchen received her Master of Science degree in the Interdisciplinary Food Science/Food Safety Program at Colorado State University and her Bachelor of Science degree in Food Science from Pennsylvania State University.
