The Organic Land Care mission encompasses a range of services, such as regular updates to our Standards for Organic Land Care, revisions and additions to our land care accreditation courses, development of new partnerships, and more. If you believe that the growth of organic land care services - free of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers - is important, and if you'd like to help support that mission, we offer two ways to do so. Businesses may become a program sponsor, and individuals may become a Friend of the Organic Land Care Program.

BECOME A FRIEND OF OLC

Individuals who would like to support the Organic Land Care Program may make a tax-deductible donation to become a Friend of OLC! In thanks, we'll list you alongside our sponsors as a Friend of the Organic Land Care Program and acknowledge your support in our email newsletters.

BECOME A BUSINESS SPONSOR OF OLC

Sponsor support is crucial to the ongoing development of the Organic Land Care Program's accreditation courses, advanced workshop education series, and more. Businesses that would like to support OLC may become a program sponsor. In gratitude for their support, sponsors receive a variety of different benefits.
