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.

  • Opportunity to participate in OFGA-sponsored on-farm research trials and receive OFGA support for your own research projects. 

  • Eligibility for OFGA-sponsored grants

  • 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)/
