Our Focus
Florida Certified Organic Growers and Consumers, Inc. (FOG) supports and promotes organic, regenerative, and sustainable agriculture.
AN ORGANIC COMMUNITY
We educate producers, consumers, media, institutions and governments about the benefits of organic and sustainable agriculture, presenting at tours, conferences, workshops, classes and other educational opportunities.

Volunteer
Donating your time is a great way to get involved with Florida Organic Growers. We have several opportunities available.
Support us
In the spirit of full transparency, FOG has made its organizational Fiscal Policies and Procedures available for public consumption. Here’s how to support us.
FRESH TAKE PODCAST
Fresh Take is your weekly roundup of all things related to organic and sustainable living. Join Florida Organic Growers staff and guest experts as we discuss everything you need to know about sustainable living, organic agriculture, and how to make the best lifestyle choices that benefit you and the environment.
EDUCATION AND OUTREACH
FOG’s Education & Outreach Program conducts teaching, research and service that engages the organization with external constituencies.
Education & Outreach projects, such as Fresh Access Bucks and farmer workshops, generate knowledge, share resources and apply the expertise of FOG in ways that advance organic agriculture and healthy and just food systems.
We educate producers, consumers, media, institutions and governments about the benefits of organic and sustainable agriculture, presenting at tours, conferences, workshops, classes and other educational opportunities. Topics include but not limited to organic and sustainable farming practices, local food systems, Farm Bill opportunities, certification options, marketing, social justice and opportunities and challenges in the organic marketplace.
For a time, FOG managed Porters Community Farm, a small community and educational farm in Gainesville that grew crops and supplied fresh organic vegetables to the St. Francis House – a transitional home for the homeless.
Contact us if you’d like a presentation at your event.
Together, we can create a sustainable, local, just, organic food and farm system that is environmentally and ethically sound.
