That committee will provide input to the Board on matters affecting organic farm markets, programs, quota policies and organic milk pricing.

Nominations are open until October 12th.

Organic milk producers will vote for those director spots at three meetings across the province, with the final choices based on the total votes from all three meetings.

The meetings are in Avonmore, Belleville and Stratford.
