Who We Are

Thanks for visiting! Certified Naturally Grown is a non-profit offering certification programs tailored for small-scale, direct-market farmers and beekeepers using natural methods. 

This organization was born of a commitment to healthy food and healthy soils. It grew out of a belief in our ability to work at the grassroots level to strengthen the local food system by encouraging natural practices and providing customers confidence in - and appreciation of - their farmers' methods.

CNG was founded when the National Organic Program took effect in 2002, partly out of a dissatisfaction with the direction the NOP was taking, but also in the belief that we could create something uniquely valuable to small farmers and the communities they feed.

Our certification model encourages collaboration, transparency, and community involvement. Our programs are based on the highest ideals of organic farming, and the requirements are reasonable. Many farmers find the peer-review inspection process a valuable learning experience.

CNG's Certification Standards take as their starting point the National Organic Program standards, but Certified Naturally Grown is an independent program not affiliated with the NOP.

CNG is nationally recognized and endorsed, and it thrives because of enormous volunteer efforts and the commitment of the people who participate.

Please join the farmers and beekeepers at the heart of the movement!
