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.
