OFGA builds community and fosters knowledge-sharing among organic fruit growers and researchers in the Upper Midwest. We sponsor winter workshops and field days, maintain the Organic Fruit Growers List Serve, publish a quarterly newsletter, share research results, and collaborate with university and extension researchers.

 

Become a member to support our work and participate in our network.  Benefits of membership are:

• Participation in OFGA's email discussion group

• Reduced-price admission to OFGA field days and other events.

• Receive our quarterly newsletter Just Picked with articles about organic fruit growing, farm profiles, and results of research trials.

• Access to ongoing and future projects, such as bulk group purchases and a database of farm input sources and pricing.​

​

We accept fruit growers and non-growers as members. Organizations are welcome to join OFGA as non-grower members.  Although we welcome all fruit growers, our area of focus is the Upper Midwest (Wisconsin, Minnesota, and adjacent states)/
