Organic Farmers Association was created by farmers, for farmers. OFA’s purpose is to build and support a farmer-led national organic farmer movement, and we cannot do that without farmers! OFA Farmer Circles create a welcoming and safe space for farmers to cultivate community with other organic farmers. In circles, farmers may share their experiences, voice challenges, identify farmer-led solutions, support each other, and form friendships or mentorships. Farmer Circles offer a place to build a supportive community for what farmers need on a regular basis.  

The term "Farmer Circles" is symbolic of the relationships we aim to establish and maintain, allowing participants to share equally in the conversation in a non-hierarchical format. Farmer Circles meet via Zoom on a monthly basis and are facilitated spaces. Participation is open to all farmers who are organic curious, in transition, and already certified. OFA membership is not required to participate.
