To help the problem, the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) and particularly the Irish and Northern Irish Branches, are running a free farm and
farmer safety event later in November this year.
These include the two - day Good Food EXPO at Chicago's UIC Forum, held most recently on March 23 and 24, 2018; the Good Food Financing & Innovation Conference, a business - and - investment - focused gathering that will be held on June 19, 2018 as a stand - alone
event for the first time, after formerly being part of the Good Food EXPO; the Good Food Accelerator, with its fourth cohort of competitively selected entrepreneur Fellows graduating on April 23, 2018 after receiving intensive instruction and connections to business leaders and investors; and our Farmer Training program, which has provided more than 14,500
farmers in 43 states with best - practices instruction in topics such as Wholesale Success, Direct Market Success and On - Farm Food
Safety.
