House resolution urges support for organic farms, gardens and farmers markets

Key points

  • This 2009 House resolution says Congress should encourage organic farming and farmers markets, but it is nonbinding.
  • The record touches the farm and harvest link, it is about how food is grown and where it is first sold.
  • No money or lobbying disclosures are listed on this file, the record shows none disclosed.
  • The House Agriculture Committee is the named gatekeeper, the file shows a latest action date of May 19, 2009.
  • If you want real changes, watch for follow up bills, hearings, or appropriations, this resolution alone does not change prices.
