One of the leading lights in this movement is Regenerative Organic Certification (ROC), a three-tiered framework encouraging continuous improvement upon a Certified Organic baseline. Launched in 2017, ROC founders understood that organic was among the most popular and trusted food production standards. ROC now has over 5.7 million acres under cultivation with 50,000+ farms, 370 crops, 118 brands and over 800 products. ROC-certified brands such as Simpli, GoodSam and Lundberg Family Farms continue to rack up industry awards and kudos, while allied organizations such as Mad Agriculture have committed over $50 million in funding to scale up such practices. Bonterra Organic Estates, California’s trailblazer in organic viticulture, proudly presents season two of its podcast, Soil to Soul, designed to generate thought-provoking conversations about wine in a changing world, with themes of hope and progress woven throughout. Season two features interviews with esteemed writers, all of whom are inspiring change-makers with a deep passion for creating a positive impact in the industry and on our planet.  Some of our favorite fruits and vegetables carry unhealthy levels of chemicals. CR’s exclusive ratings reveal how to get the benefits from these foods while minimizing your risk. Those who frequent Whole Foods have likely traversed through the store’s bakery section, which is impressively expansive and covers just about every pastry base. Whether you’re looking for a simple loaf of sourdough, a cupcake, a cookie, a tart, or a slice of cake, Whole Foods’ bakery has it all.
