>A SATURDAY FOOD CHAIN RELEASE FROM METROFARM.COM
>
>(NOTE: a special request for your assistance follows this release.)
>
>In a few weeks the word "organic" will have a brand new Federal
>Government definition. But many of the small farmers who fought so
>long and hard for that definition will not be organic enough to
>celebrate!
>
>This Saturday morning at 9am Pacific, the Food Chain with Michael
>Olson hosts Ron Khosla from the Huguenot Street Farm near New York
>City and (tentatively) a representative from the California
>Certified Organic Farmers for a conversation about growing organic
>in America.
>
>Topics will include an overview of the new Federal "organic"
>designation; why many small farmers will not participate in the
>designation, even though they may technically comply; and what those
>small farmers might do to develop a market of sympathetic consumers.
>
>Listeners are invited to call the live program on KFRM, KSCO, KOMY,
>KGOE or KMPH with questions and comments at 800-624-2665.
>
>Log on to listen anywhere, anytime:
