On April 9-11, 2013, the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) had their bi-annual meeting in Portland, OR. Albert Straus attended the meeting to share his thoughts on GMO testing and verification and the certified organic label.
Here is a full transcript of his comment:
Thank you for the opportunity to speak today. My name is Albert Straus, I am an organic farmer from Northern California and I am also the founder of Straus Family Creamery. We produce certified organic dairy products including milk, yogurt, butter, ice cream and sour cream that we distribute in the Western United States.
My dairy farm in Marshall was the first certified organic dairy farm west of the Mississippi River and my creamery was the first 100% certified organic creamery in the United States.
