Weigh in on National Organic Survey
National policies, issues and institutions affect all organic farmers, yet we lack a strong presence to ensure that the certified organic farmers’ viewpoint, needs and concerns are represented in the national arena. To address this situation, several organic farming organizations have been discussing building a more effective and clear voice for certified organic farmers. We are proud of certified organic’s growth and growing prominence in the marketplace, and believe now is the time that farmers, who are at the core of this success, establish a focused and strong voice.
To ensure we are going about this the right way, and to make certain this direction is desired by organic farmers and ranchers, we need YOUR feedback! Please complete this short 10 minute survey to tell us your thoughts about a national effort to organize organic farmers, and to identify issues important to you. Please contact Kate Mendenhall, kate.mendenhall
