Farmer Tom Organics SOP's (Standard Operating Procedures) Are the Foundation/Baseline from which all Cannabis Safety Standards have and will be created from.
The HHS - CDC - NIOSH Organic Cannabis Study
In August 2015 Federal Government Scientists from the ‘National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health’ (NIOSH) – the Industrial Hygienic Research Team for the ‘Center for Disease Control’ (CDC) — arrived, clip boards in hand, at ‘Farmer Tom Organics’ in Vancouver, WA for a three-day, midweek intensive to learn more about the Cannabis Industry as a prerequisite to the performance of the official first ever ‘Health Hazard Evaluation’ (HHE) scheduled to take place three months later in October 2015.
Then in October 2015 NIOSH returned to ‘Farmer Tom Organics’ and spent three more days in the collection and propagation of specific test data that would later be assembled into a Final CDC Report using on-site people and equipment in all phases of ‘Cannabis Harvest’ procedures from cutting down and ‘big leafing’ green plants, to shucking and trimming previously dried material.
