When is National Biobased Products Day?  This day will take place on March 8th of each calendar year.

To raise awareness of and generate interest in biobased products as an alternative to petroleum-based products. Biobased products reduce carbon emissions and our reliance on petroleum and help to mitigate climate change. Because biobased products are made from renewable materials, like feedstocks, they also provide market opportunities for the American farmer.
