To advance organic opportunities by fostering education, research, promotion and market development and policy.

The Iowa Organic Association (IOA) is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to the advancement of Iowa’s organic food and farming system.

2. Education – Through a network of farmers, handlers, processors, researchers, policy makers, consumers and other organizations, IOA strives to raise awareness of the health benefits of organic foods and the economic benefits of organic agriculture.  IOA also strives to expand and strengthen the Iowa organic farming community through producer education, farmer-to-farmer information exchange, and by connecting researchers and organic farmers to ensure that the academic research meets the practical needs of certified organic farmers.

3. Organic Community - IOA strives to create opportunities for organic producers, consumers, and businesses to support each other in growing a vibrant organic community in Iowa through networking, celebration, and collaboration.
