Dear All,
I delivered Round 2 of our petition [Ban the Use of Plastic Packaging for Organic Produce] on April 14th, 2016 to the NOSB. Here is the link to my comment & proposal accompanying the delivery.

We reached our temporary goal of 10,000 signatures for the Spring meeting which will take place at the end of April - hurray!! 

I will keep you updated on the discussions / decisions made at the meeting, once the minutes get published. Meanwhile, a huge THANK YOU for all your support in advocating for a healthier system. As before, the petition remains open, & will do so until the situation improves.

Warmly,
The Bare Necessities

NOSB spring meeting page, if you'd like to attend in person in Washington, DC, April 25-27, 2016.

Note: huge heartfelt thank yous to the amazing ladies below - without them this petition wouldn't have the size it has today!

    1. Thank you for your kind words! I could never have done this without everybody's help: takes one to start, and many to make a movement!
