Food Safety and Recreational Licensing

The Food and Recreational Safety Division of the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection regulates the entire food chain, from the agricultural producer to the consumer. That permits a comprehensive approach to food safety issues affecting producers, processors, distributors, retailers, and consumers.
