What is MOA?
The Missouri Organic Association (MOA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering farmers, producers, and consumers with the knowledge and resources needed to thrive in organic and regenerative agriculture.
Through educational programs, community outreach, and collaboration, MOA supports practices that promote soil health, environmental stewardship, and resilient farming communities. Join us as we work together to advance the future of agriculture!
MOA's Mission:
To Inspire, support, and empower through ecological organic principles.
At our foundation we are an organization committed to education.
Annually, we hold the MOA Conference, field days and more. But we wanted to provide even MORE. Join us as we introduce The Farm Gate Journal, a multi media resource guide for orgainc & regenerative producers.
Over the remainder of 2025, you will see this role out in phases. Beginning with the Monthly Webinar Series, beginning April 22nd and Open Office Hours with Dr. Swati Shrestha, beginning May 7th.
Who is MOA?
The Missouri Organic Association is comprised of farmers, chefs, gardeners, health professionals, and people like you who want healthy food and a healthy planet.
As residents of this Earth, we share one responsibility: to support sustainable systems which will ensure the quality of life for all people. Together we can promote a healthy food supply and restore balance to our planet.
Organic Certification
MOA is not an organic certification agency, but we are glad to provide help and consulting to producers who are interested in becoming certified organic. Our team includes many people who have spent their entire lives in organic agriculture.
If there is anything we can do to help you transition your operation to organic, call or email us anytime.
The Missouri Organic Association Conference and Annual Meeting
Each year MOA hosts an annual conference focused on creating a sustainable food system and supporting those who are working to achieve that same goal. We are excited to host the 2025 MOA Conference in Columbia Mo
