Our new kitchen has been certified by the Contra Costa Health Department and has a permit to operate as a production kitchen. A California Food Handler Card is required for anyone who works in our kitchen. This will ensure that everyone working at our events has a basic knowledge of food safety and sanitation.

Food Handler Cards can be obtained by taking an online food safety course. Courses are offered by a number of certified organizations and with prices ranging from $7 - $15. See the link below for a list of certified online training courses. This is not an all-inclusive list. Other options are available by browsing the internet. Just make sure the provider is ANSI-certified for California.

Once you obtain your Food Handler Card, please provide a copy to the parish office. Per health department rules, these copies will be kept onsite in our kitchen.
