The Organic Farmers Marketing Association, or OFMA, was created at the March, 1996, Leavenworth, KS National Forum of the National Organic Marketing Cooperative Feasibility Study in an effort to assist organic farmers in marketing, communication and public advocacy. The Study's Regional Meetings and surveys proved organic farmers' need and motivation to begin a cooperative effort. In the spirit of such cooperation, this Website has been created to bring together organic farmers, consumers and supporters of organic agriculture from all over the world.
We invite you to visit us often--there will be many additions as we increase participation and communication. Together we can make OFMA grow!
