Regenerative Organic Certified
Regenerative Organic Certified® was established in 2017 by a group of farmers, business leaders, and experts in soil
health, animal welfare, and social fairness collectively called the Regenerative Organic Alliance, or ROA.
ROA mission is to build soil health, ensure equity for farm workers, empower farmers, and improve animal welfare through
a holistic farm-based, brand-driven certification
Regenerative Organic Certified® was created to leverage and bring together existing high-bar certifications in order to
avoid duplicative audits or burdensome paperwork. With USDA Organic certification as a baseline, Regenerative Organic
Certified® recognizes the strong work already conducted by existing animal welfare and social fairness standard bodies,
and therefore, leverages this work as part of the journey to Regenerative Organic Certified®.
