Organizations Filed Purposes: THE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC ALLIANCE INTENDS TO CREATE A PATH FOR AGRICULTURAL PRODUCERS OF FOOD AND FIBER TO INTRODUCE AND SCALE THE USE OF REGENERATIVE ORGANIC PRACTICES IN THEIR OPERATION IN AN EFFORT TO INCREASE SOIL HEALTH AND SEQUESTER CARBON THROUGH THE SOIL. TO DO THIS, THE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC ALLIANCE HAS CREATED A WRITTEN CERTIFICATION FRAMEWORK LEVERAGING MANY EXISTING STANDARDS IN THE AREAS OF SOIL HEALTH, ANIMAL WELFARE, AND SOCIAL FAIRNESS. AS OWNERS OF THE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC CERTIFICATION, THE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC ALLIANCE WILL CONSTANTLY REVIEW BEST PRACTICES IN THESE THREE AREAS AND REVISE THE CERTIFICATION, AS NECESSARY.

THE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC ALLIANCE EXISTS TO PROMOTE REGENERATIVE ORGANIC FARMING AS THE HIGHEST STANDARD FOR AGRICULTURE AROUND THE WORLD. WE EMPHASIZE FARMING PRACTICES THAT RESTORE AND BUILD SOIL, ENSURE ANIMAL WELFARE, AND END UNFAIR CONDITIONS FOR FARMERS AND FARMWORKERS. IN DOING SO, WE'RE CREATING LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS TO SOME OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES OF OUR TIME, INCLUDING THE CLIMATE CRISIS, FACTORY FARMING, AND FRACTURED RURAL ECONOMIES. WE EXIST TO HEAL A BROKEN SYSTEM, REPAIR A DAMAGED PLANET, AND EMPOWER FARMERS AND EATERS TO CREATE A BETTER FUTURE THROUGH BETTER FARMING.
