Join eOrganic for a webinar on Tuesday, August 21 at 2PM Eastern Time (1PM Central, 12PM Mountain, 11AM Pacific Time) introducing Organic Seed Finder, a new database hosted by the Association of Official Seed Certifying Agencies (AOSCA). Beginning this fall, Organic Seed Finder will serve as a valuable tool for the organic community by providing reliable organic seed availability information. The database aims to facilitate the growth and success of the organic seed sector, and support farmer, certifier, and handler decisions for better meeting the national organic seed requirement and serving organic production, which remains one of the fastest growing segments of the U.S. food industry.
