Answer to Question 1

Fish, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, shellfish, soy, wheat, milk

Hives, wheezing, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, swelling of throat, which may cause suffocation in extreme cases- most dangerous- call 911.

Answer to Question 2

No, small farms that make less than 500,000 in annual sales are not regulated by federal agencies. They are supposed to follow state and county regulations. This often is a source of confusion and hence frustration. Hence, additional care needs to be followed when purchasing fresh produce from such farms. A relationship with the farmer and understanding of what food safety practices they follow may be helpful in making sound decisions.
