We are now trying to preserve what we have with the USDA NOP/NOSB, i.e. the
national organic standards program and associated certification and
labelling.
We don't want it corrupted by special interests that would compromise those
standards for windfall profit for those corporate interests they represent.
We also want to implement the new Regenerative Organic Certification
program that Rodale and other long standing pioneers, visionaries and
experts have proposed.

We all need to get on board this effort to save quality natural food
produced by systems of organic agriculture.
