We are The Soil Association, the leading food and farming charity. We’re on a mission to fix food and farming for all, the nature-friendly way.
Our team of experts develop practical, long-term, evidence-based solutions to transform the way we eat, farm and look after nature
We partner with people at a grassroots level across the entire food system, from farmers in fields to cooks in kitchens
We have a track record of delivering impact at scale, built over the past 80 years
Many of our pioneering initiatives have been adopted as major drivers of change by farmers, the food industry, businesses and policy makers:
Soil Association Standards, including the world's first organic standards, which define how an organic product is grown, farmed or made
Soil Association Certification is the UK's leading organic and sustainability certifier, across food, farming and forestry
Food For Life works with caterers, schools and communities, serving more than 1.5 million sustainable and healthy meals a day
Innovative Farmers is a network of farmers and growers running farmer-led research programmes and on-farm trials
The Land Trust, our sister charity, cares for farms left in trust, providing a legacy for future farming generations
Soil Association Exchange helps farmers and businesses build sustainable, resilient and more profitable farm systems
As a charity, we rely on membership and donations from individuals, businesses, institutions, and the public who share our vision.
