To Meet
An organizational meeting for
the newly formed Pennsylvania
Organic Farmers Association
will be held at the Organic Mar
ket, 601 West Lemon Street, Lan
caster, on Tuesday, Jan. 23 at
7:30 p.m. Under discussion will
be the nature of today’s organic
foods market and the methods
that organic farmers must
employ to meet the needs of both
retailers and consumers.
The proposed association will
be a non-profit, cooperative,
effort managed and directed by
farmer members. The intent of
the organization is to com
municate with and coordinate the
activities of those involved in the
production and distribution of
organic food products grown
throughout Pennsylvania.
