Based on input from the National Organic Standards Board (Board) and members of the organic community, the Board's Spring 2021 Meeting will be held live online, instead of
in-person. This allows the Board to safely deliberate in an open and public setting.

  • Thursday, April 22, Noon - 5:00 pm Eastern
  • Wednesday, April 28, Noon - 5:00 pm Eastern

  • All speakers making public comments must sign up in advance, and will be called on when it is their turn. Speakers will be notified by email of the commenting order.
  • Members of the public will be able to hear the live comments, Board deliberations, and see all slides used. Only Board members may ask questions.
