OGC’s Giving Priorities
Supporting Organic Farm Viability: We invest in the future of small and medium organic farms, helping them thrive despite the challenges they face.
Strengthening Our Supply Chain: By backing initiatives that build resilience among our farmers and customers, we ensure a stable and sustainable food system for everyone.
Preserving Farmland: Keeping land in organic production secures a future for the next generation of organic farmers.
Educating Youth: The future of organic agriculture lies in the hands of today’s youth, so we support programs that connect kids to the land, their food and the principles of organic farming.
Increasing Access to Organic Food: Organic food should be for everyone, that’s why we’re committed to increasing access for underserved communities.
Promoting Equity in Food Systems: We support Black, Indigenous, People of Color, LGBTQIA+ and other underrepresented communities to create a more equitable food system.
Addressing Climate Change: Climate change is an existential threat to agriculture. We fund nonprofits working to protect the environment, conserve natural resources and help farmers adapt to changing conditions.
Supporting Organic Seeds: We fund organic seed and varietal research to create a healthier, more resilient future for organic farming.
