Organic Farmer HelpLine

Are you curious if organic is a fit for your operation? We can talk through what organic means, how it works, and what options you have. Organic is a movement based on the principles of health, ecology, fairness, and care, and there is a place for you here.

Transitioning to organic is a big commitment and a heavy lift, but you don’t have to do it alone. Transitioning to organic does not need to be mysterious or scary– OFA Farmer Services team is here to support you along the way! We would be happy to connect you with other transitioning and organic farmers, help you find a certifier that’s a good fit for you, and guide you through the process. OFA’s organizational partners are serving farmers throughout the country and we’d love to connect you with them directly for mentorship, field days, conferences, and other supports that can be helpful during transition.

This movement is built on the backs of organic farmers, and organic farmers do best when they work together. OFA has many opportunities for organic farmers to support one another and address the barriers you face. Call our Farmer Services Team anytime and we will do our best to answer your questions or connect you with someone who can.

In 2024, OFA’s Farmer Services team fielded 144 farmer helpline technical assistance calls to support farmers all along their organic journey. If you have a question and you don’t know where to start. Reach out to our team and we’ll connect you to resources and experts who can help.
