Why become certified by Protected
Harvest?
CREDIBILITY. Third-party certification
is essential to the credibility of any farm or company that
is engaged in “green” production practices. As
an independent certifying agent, Protected Harvest is responsible
for documenting that your product has met soil, water, and
pesticide standards that are environmentally sound and scientifically
based.
CONSUMER LOYALTY. An eco-label
must ultimately make a real difference in environmental protection
in order to gain consumer confidence. The Protected Harvest
label communicates the authenticity of your marketing message
to your customers, giving you a competitive edge in the marketplace.
MARKET SUPPORT. Protected Harvest
is actively engaged in building industry recognition for Protected
Harvest certification through trade shows, trade articles,
point-of-sale materials, direct mailings, publicized retailer
success stories, and recognition of pioneers.
LEADERSHIP. Protected Harvest
will work with policy makers and industry managers to provide
the services and infrastructure needed in the field and in
the marketplace. We will continue to build strategic alliances
with environmental, consumer, and sustainable agriculture
organizations, so that their combined membership can actively
support the Protected Harvest label – and support farmers
and food companies that are making a difference.
Protected Harvest validates your efforts to protect
the environment and distinguishes your product in the marketplace.
