The United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Organic Working Group will be hosting a webinar on April 29 to showcase a variety of resources for farmers interested in organic. The webinar will take place at 1:00 pm eastern time.
The webinar will feature presentations on the process to obtain an organic certification, organic labeling, and resources on farmers markets.
- Get information about USDA organic rules for labeling and small farms. For a preview, take a look at the fact sheet, “Organic Labeling at Farmer’s Markets.”
- Find out how to become certified organic, and what organic production and food handling standards mean.
- Learn how to advertise your Farmers Market, CSA, Food Hub, or On-Farm Market in USDA’s Local Food Directories. Listing your direct food enterprise is free.
This presentation is part of USDA’s larger Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food initiative, which seeks to help rural economies by connecting producers with consumers.
