Food Permits
Faculty, staff, students, and guests wanting to cook and/or distribute food items on campus to the public as donations, for fundraising, for profit, or for free must first read the Temporary Food Permit Guidelines (TFP Guidelines). A Temporary Food Permit (TFP) request must be submitted at least 10 days before the proposed event. Below are the steps to obtain a TFP.
- Read the TFP Guidelines
- Sign and upload the Declaration of Acknowledgment (DOA)
- Obtain and upload a Food Handler Certificate (FHC) or Food Manager Certificate (FMC) for medium and/or high-risk foods from an accredited provider such as ServSafe or Learn2Serve.
- Fire Extinguisher Training and an Open Flame Permit (OFP) may be required for high-risk foods.
- Employees will upload their documents through the online TFP Request System, and student organizations will upload through GetInvolved.
- Include as much information as possible in your request to prevent delay.
- Food items must list potential allergen ingredients. This statement flyer is generated within the online permit system and submitted via email along with the food permit when approved. Print both the permit and allergens statement, and post at your table.
- Be sure to state the name(s) and address(s) of where you plan to purchase your ingredients and/or food items.
- Once approved, please have all applicable documents (TFP, DOA, FHC, FMC, OFP & Allergens Statement) present at your event for random inspections.
