Organic farmers threatened with fines 
Marketing boards want them to join the system

Congratulations Brad.

I'm sorry I was not able to attend,but I will write a letter to Campbell
and Van Dongen.

With Mad Cow, and the chicken disease in Asia, it is clear to me that a commercial
grower is not equivalent to an organic grower and that an exemption is the easiest and
smartest way to resolve the issue.

And if an exemption leads to more organic growers....then as a community we can all
shout---great.

Take Care,
Jerry.
