Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack (right) listens to Senator Maggie Hassan ahead of a visit to the Brookdale Fruit Farm in Hollis, New Hampshire June 17, 2022. The farm hosted a round table discussion with Vilsack and local producers in the state. Vilsack took the opportunity to announce that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) plans to provide up to $200 million in assistance for specialty crop producers who incur eligible on-farm food safety program expenses to obtain or renew a food safety certification in calendar years 2022 or 2023.
