📰 News we're reading

• End of 2025 brings new food safety code to Manchester (inklink.news) — Exeter is highlighted as one of 15 New Hampshire towns that already follow the stricter 2017 FDA Food Code, which Manchester has now adopted for its 750 food establishments. This statewide shift toward risk-based inspections means Exeter residents can expect Manchester’s food safety standards to better match those already used in Exeter’s restaurants, groceries, and food trucks.
