Now an Expo West Tradition, OFRF hosted our 9th Annual organic benefit luncheon at the Natural Products Expo in Anaheim, California, in cooperation with New Hope Natural Media. Once again, chefs Donna Prizgintas and Chris Blobaum prepared a fabulous all-organic buffet, and organic industry leaders enjoyed an opportunity to network over a sumptuous meal. Guest of honor, Cornell researcher and OFRF grantee Linda Tikofsky, discussed her groundbreaking work in organic dairy systems. More than 375 organic industry supporters attended and helped OFRF raise over $65,000.
