Farmers
Our Approach
IN-PERSON + REMOTE CONSULTATION
We prioritize in-person, one-on-one discussions with farmers, and are also accessible and responsive via email, text or phone for all your transition needs.
SCIENCE + KNOWLEDGE BASED RECOS
Our consultants know what is required by the NOP regulations, what is operationally necessary, and what has been proven through science to deliver results.
NO SALES, ONLY OBJECTIVE ADVICE
Our consultants are not “selling” a product which allows us to provide unbiased advice on any subject without the goal of “making a sale”.
