Why It Matters
Organic is more than a label.
It's a movement toward healthy food, clean soil and water, animal welfare, and a more just food system.
To grow the organic movement, people need to understand why it matters, and decision-makers need a trusted voice to guide smart choices. That's why we work to ensure the Ontario government recognizes and invests in the organic value chain.
