Vermont Organic Mentorship Program

[Zea Luce]

“When our mentee visited our farm, we showed her how we manage tomatoes in the greenhouse and also talked about the pieces she would need to gather for her certification paperwork for VOF.”

Would you benefit from working with an experienced organic grower, visiting their farm, and having their help with the certification process? Learn more and fill out the short application to be paired with an organic mentor! Or, become a mentor yourself!

Check out the Organic Mentorship Opportunity -- Interested in transitioning to organic practices or becoming certified? Sign up this fall for a yearlong peer-to-peer mentorship program. Through the Transition to Organic Partnership Program, certified producers serve as mentors for organic-curious and transitioning producers. Receive one-on-one support, set your own goals, visit each other’s operations, ask your burning questions, and be set up for success in your organic certification journey! Sign up this fall to start the mentorship in December - either as a mentor or mentee. Questions? Reach out to NOFA-VT’s TOPP Coordinator, Zea Luce: z...@nofavt.org.
