WE’re on a mission to grow the organic agriculture movement
At the heart of what we do is the science-based knowledge that organic food and agriculture have the power to change the health of communities and the planet for the better. In this year’s Benefit Report, we’re sharing the impact OGC made through advocacy, giving back and our passion for working side-by-side with farmers and retailers to help them succeed. Here's to another year of growth, innovation and making our world a little better, one organic step at a time.
ORGANIC is our mission
As part of our mission to grow the organic movement, OGC has a unique opportunity to help educate and inspire eaters to choose organic for healthy people and planet. We knew we could help revive and build devotion by creating a PSA-inspired awareness campaign to remind shoppers why organic matters, what it stands for and why it’s worth it.
Organic has always been sustainable, soil regenerating, non-GMO, toxic synthetic pesticide-free, healthy, climate-smart and tasty - and it’s backed by rigorous third-party inspections and federal certification.

FRESH Organic PRODUCE & GENUINE partnerships
Our longstanding relationships with organic growers near and far allow us to source quality produce year-round. We know exactly what’s in season and when, and where to find it at its best. Here’s what we’re excited about now!
We combine a passion for produce with an expansive network of growers and the power of timely logistics.
Whether in the field with growers, in our warehouse custom packing orders, or aboard our biodiesel powered trucks making deliveries throughout the Northwest, we’re committed to meeting the needs of our customers 365 days a year.
We are proudly and purposefully trust-owned.
Purpose. It’s a part of everything we do, guiding our actions and partnerships. As the first company in the U.S. to become owned by a “purpose trust,” we are forever committed to delivering positive economic, social and environmental impact.
We stand on the land shaped by the care, resilience, and knowledge of those who came before us.
Indigenous tribes have been with the lands that we live and work on today throughout Oregon and the Northwest since time immemorial and continue to be a vital part of Oregon today. We honor this land and its original inhabitants.
We would like to express our respect to the First Peoples of this land, the nine federally recognized tribes of Oregon; the Burns Paiute Tribe; the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians; the Coquille Indian Tribe; the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians; the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde Community; The Klamath Tribes; the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians; The Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indians, and; the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs, who continue to make contributions within the State of Oregon, nationally and across the globe.
As an organization whose mission has land stewardship as a central tenant, it’s important to recognize and honor the ongoing legal and spiritual connection between the land, plants, animals and the Indigenous people of what we now call Oregon. The deep connection between people, the land and the environment is vital; the health of one affects the health of all. We recognize the sovereignty of the nine federally recognized tribes with ties to this land and thank them for sharing their traditional ecological knowledge and guidance on caring for each other and the land. We also recognize that every resident of Oregon has benefited and continues to benefit from the use and occupation of this land. OGC is committed to building a respectful and strong partnership as stewards.
