Agriculture and food supply are critically important to us all and especially during a time of crisis. Thankfully, our farmers are doing all they can to manage in these uncertain times, so we continue to have food on the table and other essential ag products. The Food and Drug Administration confirms that supplies are in good shape and we all need to do our part to make sure things stay that way. Temporary shortages on some items is possible with demand spikes, but don’t panic.  As long as farmers have the essentials needed to produce, harvest and ship crops, the rest of us will not go without. Now more than ever, support agriculture from the biggest operations to the smallest ... you’ll be helping yourself. 
 
Review this list for a Q&A from the FDA as well as best practices on food handling to remain safe.
