Organic Alternatives to Treated Lumber (Summary)

This publication reminds all prospective and currently certified organic producers that treated lumber is not allowed under the Final Rule of the National Organic Program (NOP), and provides information on alternative products. For posts and lumber that are in contact with soil, crops, or livestock, the options include untreated lumber, alternatively treated lumber, alternative plywood products, and untreated fence posts.

This publication is currently in revision. For information on this topic, contact Lee Rinehart at 800-346-9140 or lee@ncat.org.
