This year at Only Organic, we have seen countless stories that have highlighted the importance of eating organic, supporting farmers, and ensuring food security during the pandemic. Only Organic has focused on these topics as well including content on the health benefits of eating organic, highlighting organic farmers, the importance of using organic and natural cleaning products,and introducing our supporters to organic textiles. We also continued our Skip the Chemicals campaign, which highlights the more than 700 chemicals that are prohibited from use in organic. Our Skip the Chemicals video, “The World’s Most Skippable Ad”, was mentioned in a Time Magazine article about Superbowl ads and also won the Gold Shorty Award in the important YouTube category for best video in 2020!

We recognize that this giving season may look different so we’ve gathered some unique ideas for gift-giving this year that can help you and your loved ones enjoy an organic holiday.

Support An Organic Farmer With Your Gifts:

• Gift a CSA share this holiday. Community-supported agriculture, or CSA, is emerging as a convenient and cost-effective way to buy organic product and also support local farmers. Find a local organic farmer or CSA in your area or the recipient’s neighborhood here.
• Gift farm stand gift certificates. Give the gift of a farm stand or farm gift certificate. Farmers often offer gift certificates for produce boxes, farm stands or prepared farm foods. Contact your local farmer or review their website for holiday offerings.
• Purchase a CSA delivery subscription from a service that supports organic farmers. We recommend Misfits Market, Farmbox or Imperfect Foods.

Gifts That Give Organic Food:

• Purchase some organic seeds. We recommend seeds from High Mowing Seeds and Johnny’s Seeds.
