CERTIFICATION INFORMATION

PRODUCTS AND MATERIALS INFORMATION
- National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances
- OMRI Material Lists
- Products used locally on organic cranberries (this will be an evolving list ... It's basically stuff growers here are using)
If you are a grower and are using a product not on this list, consider emailing Cassie and sharing that information. Organic production information is sorely limiting for cranberries, and one of our goals with this webpage is to provide information that will benefit growers who have part or all of their farm in organic production or transition.
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
- NRCS EQIP Organic Initiative (also some help with transitioning)
