Fall 2019 Meeting Update
Thank you to those that were able to make the meeting.
We heard from our new President Gregory Danzeisen on the state of MFPA and a review of the Affiliate Meeting held this last summer at the IAFP annual meeting.
Polly Courtney also provided an update on the current health of our membership and financial position. We remain in a good position and look forward to doing more with our organization.
We discussed ideas for upcoming awards and meetings. In order to get as much feedback as possible, we will be creating a survey to send to our members. So please watch for the survey when it comes to your email.

Is the PMO law?
Have you ever been confused on whether or not the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance released by the US FDA is law? Here is a link I found recently that helps explain the relationship between the federal and state governments in regards to the PMO.
