Our Commitment

In the day after the conclusion of what has been an incredibly divisive election season, we at AGW want to take this opportunity to celebrate the values we share in common, and reaffirm our commitment to our farmers and supporters. Regardless of your stance on the final outcome of the U.S. election, through our programmatic work and family of certifications, AGW has been—and will continue to be—the following:

• A program that honors and respects all people, regardless of race, color, creed, class, religion, disability, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status or political affiliation
• A free-market solution to the challenges of a corporate-controlled food system
• A source of freedom of information about the food we eat and the farms that produce it
• A source of support for independent family businesses through a crowd-funded program
• A market-based reward for farmers practicing environmental stewardship and high animal welfare
• A beacon of transparency in a market dominated by greenwashing and misinformation
• A source of healthful food and farming that nourishes people and communities
• A program that honors and respects the environment and all life with whom we share our planet
• A program that listens—to farmers, scientists, workers and the public
• A safe place for discourse based on facts, and with respect for differences of opinion
• A solutions-oriented program focused on positive outcomes

We thank you for your support and look forward to working with you all to build an inclusive, environmentally sustainable, high-welfare, transparent and accountable food system for all.
