HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

AND

CONGRATULATIONS

TO THE

ORGANIC & NATURAL

HEALTH ASSOCIATION

It was almost three years ago to the day when I agreed to take on the amazing and rewarding opportunity to open the doors of the Organic & Natural Health Association. As we mark our anniversary and 2014 launch, I want to thank each of our members for supporting our mission to unite consumers and corporations in the transformation of business practices to align with regenerative practices for the sake of healthy people and a healthy planet. Your commitment to transparency, traceability, accessibility and continual quality improvement exemplifies your role as a leader in the industry. A special thanks to our Board of Directors for your bold, visionary leadership. It makes all the work worthwhile. The combination of all this talent and commitment has us three years closer to creating a vital and resilient world that honors our resources and our shared future.
