Organic Certification: Creating the Organic Systems Plan
Friday, March 20, 1 to 4pm
Charlevoix Public Library, 220 West Clinton St., Charlevoix
Organic farming is an ecologically balanced, integrated way of farming. It also has a legal definition under the USDA National Organic Program (NOP). Central to certification is the organic systems plan the farmer creates. Many farmers find that creating the record keeping systems required for an organic systems plan helps them be better farm managers. In this interactive workshop instructor Larry Dyer will explain how the USDA NOP works and the requirements for transitioning to organic. Participants will leave the workshop with a draft organic systems plan for their farm.
$25 per person, or $30 for two from the same farm.
