Carla,
I have heard some stories about the organic mandate but I think that is an OK specific situation. Mt agent told me they were favoring organic but not requiring it. . I am Certified Naturally Grown and I got in.
Would you rather those dollars went to Wall Street Banker's bonuses?

Oh, I'm one of those who got so excited when I heard of this program, and then quickly got disgusted with it. We've been farming (for a living, not as a hobby) for 9 years now. We weren't even allowed to fill out the paper work. In Oklahoma you had to be certified organic - period.

I did hear that 11 "farms" in my county received funding for a high tunnel.  Since I attend the only farmers market in my county, and no one there has a new high tunnel it really makes me wonder where those 11 farms are at.

I'm so happy that I work so hard for so very little so that I can pay my taxes to buy high tunnels for ?????
