Organic Label

Announcement February 21, 2017

Dear USDA,

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) National Organic

Program (NOP) is pleased to announce changes to its Organic

Insider subscription service.

We've Made Some Changes...

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is pleased to

announce that we have implemented a new email subscription

service for Organic Insider updates from the National Organic

Program (NOP).

While the subscription service has changed, the Organic

Insider has not. The Organic Insider will continue to inform

the organic community on a wide range of functions, including

organic regulatory updates, requests for public comments,

USDA programs and services, and much more.

Do I need to do anything?

On February 8, 2017, we sent our first Organic Insider

message using the new service, and since then, we've shared

two more announcements. Hopefully, you have received them

all. If you did...that's great! No further action is necessary.

If you have not received the new Organic Insider messages,

here are a few steps tips to make sure these updates make it

to your inbox.

1. The new Organic Insider messages are sent to you from

USDAAMS@public.govdelivery.com. Please add the

"sender" email address to your list of safe senders to

prevent your messages from being filtered as junk mail

or spam.

2. Review your subscription. Make any needed updates

and customize the topics you are subscribed to receive:
