Organic option worth a listen

Jennifer Tucker will speak 8:30-9 a.m. Nov 30.

Come learn about how organic agriculture is climate-smart agriculture, and what the USDA and the National Organic Program are doing to advance the public-private partnership of organic certification around the world. Farmers implementing the USDA organic standards maximize the use of natural materials, protect our natural resources, maintain and improve water and soil quality, and protect biodiversity. We’ll talk about current regulatory priorities and what the USDA is doing to protect the USDA organic seal. Visit www.unconventionalag.com for more information.
