🌱 We had so much fun last week during OMRI's Volunteer Day! On Friday, May 29, OMRI staff volunteered at Food for Lane County's (FFLC) Youth Farm in Eugene, Oregon. As nonprofit food bank, FFLC serves thousands of individuals and families across Lane County by engaging the community to create access to food with compassion and community-driven solutions.

OMRI's Volunteer Day is largely driven by continued staff interest in helping the community in Eugene. For more info on FFLC's mission and how to get involved, visit https://www.foodforlanecounty.org/

Did you know that OMRI is NOT a consulting firm? OMRI provides input manufacturers with thorough and transparent product reviews, but we cannot provide specific instructions to Applicants on how to manufacture compliant input products for organic production. Our ISO accreditation (17065) does not allow OMRI to provide consulting services.

Our Applications Support Team can guide you through the entire OMRI Review Process and provide any resources you might need.
