Lead with Seed

Policy work is essential to building and protecting seed systems in the U.S., and that’s why we’re launching new Advocacy Office Hours. These monthly virtual calls are opportunities to engage regularly in OSA’s policy and advocacy work. Each month Policy & Advocacy Director Cat McCluskey will share updates and facilitate discussion on policy initiatives, timely action items, and key issues affecting organic seed systems. Our first Advocacy Office Hours will be Friday, June 27th, and we’ll meet the first Friday of each month after that. 

Upcoming Advocacy Office Hours: 

  • Friday, August 1st (Corresponding with our OSA Quarterly Call)
  • Friday, September 5th 
  • Friday, October 3rd 
  • Friday, November 7th (Corresponding with our OSA Quarterly Call)
  • Friday, December 5th
