Canada’s National Organic Week is the largest annual celebration of organic food, farming and products across the country. Hundreds of individual events showcase the benefits of organic agriculture and its positive impact on the environment. Organic represents a vibrant alternative food system and an alternative option for clothing, personal care and cleaning products.
In past years, events included anything from pickling workshops to recipes contests, farm tours, or organic food and drink tastings in retail locations across the country. If you want to get involved in organic week this year check out our Organic Week events section of our website or plan an event in your community.

Their neighbors thought they were crazy.
Their kids were teased at school.
Turns out they were onto something…
One day in 1953, Nebraska farmer Donald Vetter had an epiphany while spraying his cornfield. He’d wondered for a while about the wartime chemicals—now approved for agricultural use—he was putting on his crops. He decided right then to quit spraying and to learn to farm in harmony with nature. His farmer neighbors questioned his sanity. When his son David came back to the farm from seminary with a mission to “minister to the soil,” bets were made on how long they’d last.
Today, they’re considered regenerative organic farming pioneers.
