The Northeast Organic Farming Association of Vermont is a nonprofit association of farmers, gardeners, and consumers working to promote an economically viable, ecologically sound, and socially just Vermont agricultural system that benefits all living things. NOFA-VT is best known for its state and federal advocacy, on-farm summer events, inspiring and educational Winter Conference, technical assistance for organic farmers and farmers’ markets, food access programming like Crop Cash and Farm Share Program, and farm-to-school activities that bring nutritious local food to kids.
