Important considerations to ensure a safe event include planning your menu, estimating the number of meals you anticipate serving, as well as checking the projected weather forecast if you will be cooking or serving foods outdoors. Food safety begins when you purchase your supplies and does not end until your event concludes. No home prepared foods are allowed at temporary food events.
