Dear Prospective Member,
Thank you for seeking certification from California Organic Farmers Association. COFA is a California non-profit mutual benefit corporation that provides organic certification services to qualified farmers and processors. COFA does not certify products as organic but rather it certifies the production, handling or processing operation as conforming to the National Organic Program.
All applicants pay an annual membership / client fee of $50.00. This annual fee is refundable if the applicant is determined not to be in compliance with COFA or NOP regulations.
COFA will begin the certification process and mail you all the necessary forms, upon receipt of the application following this page.
Sincerely,
Laura Horne
Secretary / Treasurer
