US (VT): Thetford lawmakers and farmers to rally against hydroponics

A group of farmers, activists and lawmakers will rally to keep the certification of “organic” food rooted in soil-based farming.

The rally is coming a month before the National Organic Standards Board will debate whether to allow hydroponically-cultivated crops — crops grown primarily in water, instead of soil — under the organic standards.

A parade of 25 tractors will ride down the center of Thetford on Halloween weekend.
