Before beginning an application, please make sure you have read and understand the full Regenerative Organic Certified® framework and governing documents, available at RegenOrganic.org/Resources.
Please note: This application form is for producer operations only, i.e. farms, ranches, vineyards, and grower groups.
- Brands and other non-producer entities making consumer-facing Regenerative Organic Certified® claims must complete a different application to become licensed available here. If you are a producer operation that both 1) grows crops and/or raises livestock and 2) processes the farm outputs into products, then you will qualify for a Producer-Processor License, as outlined in Section 2.4 of our Cost & Fee Structure. You will provide answers accordingly in this application.
