Organic Council of Ontario

Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Guelph, Ontario, the Organic Council of Ontario (OCO) is the voice of the province’s organic sector. OCO supports farmers by advocating for organic-friendly policies, offering resources for certification, and providing training to help producers adopt and expand organic practices.

Through research, collaboration, and public engagement, OCO helps build a more sustainable and resilient food system in Ontario.
