Mission
Georgia Organics invests in organic farmers for the health of our communities and the land.
-
Georgia Organics invests in organic farmers for the health of the land and our communities. Our vision is that all Georgia farmers nurture and heal the land, people, and communities. To achieve this, we work to increase farmer prosperity and racial equity, grow a resilient local food movement, and provide impact capital for investment in organic and regenerative farms and regional food systems. Programs include direct farmer services with initiatives like the Accelerator program and establishing purchasing and procurement benchmarks and road-maps for local and organic food procurement for communities, schools, early care centers, and restaurants to become farmer champions. Through our Community Collaborations program, we work to build a resilient local food movement to grow an influential network of advocates who champion organic and regenerative farms through partnerships and alliances convening farmers, advocates, partners, and stakeholders along with strong communications channels and advocacy. To advance this, we provide Impact Capital through the Farmer Fund, micro-grants, and collective impact strategies.Georgia Organics did execute a regional 3 day conference, SOWTH, with farm tours, and several speaker forums to reconnect farmers, producers, organic organizations and others after COVID.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
