The Master Food Preserver (MFP) program is a public-service community outreach program providing up-to-date information on food safety and food preservation. A Master Food Preserver is a volunteer who is formally educated in food preservation and food safety and is certified by a university cooperative extension. Volunteers are qualified to teach food preservation and food safety in addition to disseminating that information via lectures, presentations, and other county events.
