OVERVIEW
At Our Farms, knowing where your food comes from isn’t a bonus — it’s the starting point.
Our “Verified Farmer-Owned” badge lets you know that a product has been listed by a real farmer, producer, or farm-approved partner committed to transparency, quality, and responsible sourcing.
What “Verified Farmer-Owned” Means
When you see the Verified Farmer-Owned label on a product or seller profile, it means:
-The farm or maker has been personally approved by Our Farms
-We’ve reviewed sourcing practices, product claims, and business info
-The farm and facilities are traceable and located within the U.S.
-The products are packed and shipped directly by the farmer or a fulfillment partner they trust
Did you know? 76% of surveyed grocery shoppers say transparency about ingredients and how food is made is important.
How We Verify Farms
We work directly with farmers and regional producers to:
1. Review their practices – including growing, harvesting, sourcing, or making
2. Verify documentation – such as USDA certifications, licensing, or food safety plans
3. Confirm fulfillment capability – so orders arrive safe, fresh, and timely
While we’re not a third-party auditor, our internal approval process helps ensure you're buying from real, accountable producers that we know, trust and respect.
Our aim is to help shoppers know where their food comes from and WHO grew it. By shopping Farmer Verified you can finally put a face to your food.
Why It Matters
In a world of faceless grocery giants and vague supply chains, Verified Farmer-Owned gives you:
-Confidence that your dollars are going to real farms
-Clear insight into how and where your food was made
-Direct support of rural economies and small businesses
This movement isn’t just about better groceries, it’s about building better communities, around better food, for a better world.
