Did you know that in addition to regional staff located throughout California, CCOF has representatives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Ashville, North Carolina (2 representatives!); Bend, Oregon; and State College, Pennsylvania? These CCOF out-ofstate certification employees will be playing a new role in their local regions to learn about organic matters and represent CCOF. Whether attending conferences, trade shows, field days, participating with like-minded organizations, or simply meeting other organic-minded people, CCOF is working to give our regional staff opportunities to connect with their local and regional organic communities. Look for a new listing of regional staff on our website, and please contact CCOF if you would like to invite us to participate in a regional event.
