1 Farmers Markets: Rules, Regulations and Reforms Webinar on current and future farmers market regulations Deborah Cavanaugh-Grant, U of I Extension Wes King, Illinois Stewardship Alliance Pat Stieren, IL Farmers Market Association Lindsay Record, Illinois Stewardship Alliance 1
2 Welcome This Webinar provides an update about Public Act which requires smarter streamlined and consistent state-wide regulations for Farmers Markets. This law is a major step forward in creating risk and scale appropriate regulations for farmers' markets that will improve consumer access to locally produced food, support farmers' markets as a whole and the farmers and entrepreneurs that call them home. 2
3 Agenda History & Overview of HB5657 Questions on HB5657 Illinois Farmers Market Task Force Gathering Input Implementation: Next Steps 3
4 HB5657: Smarter Rules for Farmers Markets Background & Need Legislative History 4 HB5657/P.A Overview Consistent statewide rules & regulations Food Sampling at farmers markets Product origin transparency Cottage Food Questions
5 HB5657 Background & History Need for regulatory system to support and allow for growth Current regulatory patchwork quilt Regulatory inconsistency Consistent source of complaints Bipartisan Sponsored by Representative Mike Tryon and Senator David Koehler 5
6 HB5657 Background & History 5 year legislative history 2009 Senator Koehler Introduces legislation Does not pass 2010 House Joint Resolution 57 Adopted 2011 Senate Bill 1852 Passes and is singed into law 2014 House Bill 5657 Passes and is signed into law on June 23 Public Act
7 Overview Four Key Parts: Consistent statewide rules & regulations Food Sampling at farmers markets Product origin transparency Cottage Food 7
8 Consistent statewide rules & regulations Clarifies the farmers market task force s authority to write consistent statewide rules and regulations for food sanitation at farmers markets Prevents local health departments from adopting more stringent rules or regulations than set by the state Creates a timeline for the task force to develop recommendations for consistent statewide rules and regulations December 15, 2015 deadline Does not address fees for permits or licenses 8
9 Food Sampling Food Sampling is important, USDA funded study found a significant & immediate impact on sales at farmers markets Authorizes and instructs IDPH and the task force to develop a new food sampling certificate program for farmers markets Preliminary/draft components of the program: Statewide and consistent regulations and best practices Exemption from local handling permits for food sampling Must take a food handlers training course and sampling best practices training/webinar Each person sampling must have the certificate Certificate allows sampling at any and all farmers markets in Illinois for 36 months Approximate cost for certificate = around $50 9
10 Product Origin Transparency Re-sellers and lack of transparency of product origin is a perennial issue for farmers and market managers Federal Food Safety Modernization Act contains similar requirements, once implemented New law requires all vendors selling specialty crops and raw agricultural commodities to include a sign, packing slip or label at the point of sale stating the physical address where the product or products were grown Collaboration is ok, just be transparent, where does it come from, wear it proudly Re-sellers can still operate they just have to state where the products were purchased 10
11 Product Origin Transparency Not including such a sign, label, or packing slip risks product being declared misbranded Public health community doesn t currently plan to actively enforce this provision or have the resources to do so However egregious violations could still face legal action through the courts for selling misbranded products Gives market managers legal backing to require product origin transparency FSMA contains almost identical language and once implemented will include enforcement resources Opportunity to prepare for FSMA 11
12 Cottage Food Operations Does not address types of products allowed by a cottage food operations Does not address places cottage food operations can sell Caps registration fees for cottage food operations at $25/year Changes the definition to allow residential and commercial style kitchens in out buildings on the same property as the primary residence to be used for cottage food production 12

14 Farmer Market Task Force History of Legislation The Illinois Farmers Market Task Force was created by Public Act (SB 1852) and was signed into law by Gov.

Goal is to help minimize and standardize regulations governing farmers markets statewide without compromising public health.
