Resources & Services

Western Growers Science works with regulators, legislators, universities and other scientists to create resources that assist the fresh produce industry with maintaining compliance, staying up to date on regulatory changes and planning for future opportunities. These resources include the Recall Manual, the Food Inspection Manual and the Growers Guide to FDA Assignment Sampling Visits.

Members can go to the Resources Hub to access additional resources on food safety guidelines and regulations.

Developed by the Western Growers Science team in collaboration with Western Growers member companies, GreenLink® provides a digital, secure and confidential online platform that enables users to share food safety data.
