What is Organic September?

Organic September is about celebrating everything organic, giving the hardworking organic producers a spotlight to acknowledge their work and dedication to work with nature, not against it. The past few years have seen huge changes to our world, and now more than ever it’s time we start seeking solutions to help restore nature, health and climate. Going organic is the answer and quite simply it’s what the planet would choose. 

Better for Wildlife. Better for Soil. Better for Farm Animals. Better for You. 

Organic September isn’t about changing your lifestyle completely, we know that’s an impossible task, it’s about encouraging you to make planet-positive decisions anywhere you can. Even a small swap can make a big difference! It could be consciously buying organic produce from your supermarket, shopping at your local farmer’s market, being involved in an organic box scheme or creating a wildlife-friendly environment in your own garden! 

Together, with nature, we can help restore our planet. Help us work with nature, not against it, it’s what the planet would want!
