As summer rolls in, bringing with it fairs, festivals, and farmers markets, the Henry and Stark County Health Departments are urging all food vendors and event coordinators to adhere to updated health regulations. To serve food at any event, vendors must fill out and submit an application to the Health Department at least five business days before the event to avoid a late fee. Megan Washburn from the Environmental Health Division emphasizes the importance of these regulations not just for compliance but for ensuring public safety and confidence in local food services. Resources and application forms are available on their newly updated website, promising a safer community dining experience.
