The Mission of the Non-GMO Project

The Non-GMO Project is a nonprofit organization committed to preserving and building sources of non-GMO products, educating consumers and providing verified non-GMO choices.

Beliefs…

  • Everyone has a right to know what is in their food and deserves access to non-GMO choices.
  • By voting with your dollars every time you shop, collectively you have the power to change the way your food is grown and made.
  • Preserving and building the non-GMO supply chain is a critical step of transitioning toward a safe, healthy food supply for future generations.
  • The integrity of a diverse genetic inheritance is essential to human and environmental health and ecological harmony.
  • By encouraging a non-GMO seed supply, we are supporting the restoration of traditional seed breeding and the right of farmers to save and plant their own seeds and grow varieties of their choice.
  • A verified non-GMO system supports organic agriculture by reducing contamination pressure and protecting the supply of non-GMO seed.
  • Everyone deserves an informed choice about whether or not to consume genetically modified organisms.

The Non-GMO Verification

The Non-GMO Project Product Verification Program is North America’s only third-party verification for non-GMO food and products. Third-party verification is the highest quality system when it comes to product labeling and certifications because it ensures products have been comprehensively evaluated by an independent party for compliance with a standard developed by industry experts and stakeholders.

Get Verified as Non-GMO

Companies must work with third-party technical administrators to get their products verified. These technical administrators are skilled industry professionals and will work with you to help your products achieve verification.
