Abstract:
eOrganic is a webcommunity where farmers, researchers, and educators can exchange objective, research and experience based information about organic agriculture.  The workspace is being developed in response to the opportunity presented by eXtension, which is the new national Extension service that aims to provide the best of the best outreach materials.  It is a free searchable collection of articles, videos, presenations including an ask the expert feature.  The eOrganic workspace will develop content for this outlet as the community seeks to capture content from original sources, content partners (Landgrants, SARE, ATTRA etc.) and open content sources.
