Canadian Nutrition Labels
If you took the Genesis training (held Oct 14 & 15 in Whitehorse) it will cost you $20.00 to produce each label. If you have not taken the training you need to hire someone who has for an additional $20.00 per label. Total cost is $40.00 per label.
Genesis Training was made possible by a grant from the Canada Yukon Agricultural Policy Framework
