How Regenerative Organic Certified Is Changing Farming and Brands

What Is Regenerative Organic Certified®

Regenerative Organic Certified® (ROC) is a third-party certification overseen by the nonprofit Regenerative Organic Alliance (ROA). It builds on organic certification—meaning all ROC farms and producers must first meet USDA Organic standards (or recognized international equivalents)—and then layers on additional requirements in three key pillars: Soil Health & Land Management, Animal Welfare, and Farmer & Worker Fairness.

ROC also uses a tiered framework—Bronze, Silver, and Gold—which encourages farms and brands to progress over time toward more rigorous practices. Bronze denotes foundation-level compliance; Silver indicates stronger adoption; Gold represents the highest standard across all pillars.
