As a leading organic certifier, we are reshaping the marketplace by enabling communities to transform food systems through transparency and resiliency.
Integrity guides us in reimagining our $992 billion food system. We’re about quality over quantity and always have been. Our commitment to providing the most thorough certification services possible is steadfast.
We know certification services alone will not completely secure social and environmental sustainability. In the last seven years, we invested $1.6 million of our net ordinary income into education, research and advocacy to grow the organic movement.
Knowledge empowers people and we believe in sharing our technical expertise to educate and uplift. We develop programs and services that make producing sustainable food and market vitality possible and then amplify those resources to make them accessible. Since our inception, we’ve advocated for rigorous and sensible guidelines to maintain our food’s integrity. We continue to invest and promote farm viability, conservation efforts, soil health and access to equity in food and agriculture.
Oregon Tilth’s dedicated staff and board of industry experts lead this crucial work. This year, we’re taking an even more integrated approach in creating a more resilient and just food system.
