Marty Jiminez recently left the department to pursue other interests and we wish him the very best in his move. His position of Coordinator for Organic Certification we hope to fill by the next advisory board meeting.

Also, TDA will soon be posting an Organic Program Specialist position, authorized by the Texas Legislature and funded through user fees. If you know someone that may be interested in the position, please ask them to check our website at http://www.TexasAgriculture.gov.
