Organic Farmers of America (OFA) continues to be a powerful force for farmer-driven‑ policy, organic integrity, and resilient agricultural systems. This past Giving Tuesday, taking place December 2nd, Bluestone Life was proud to support OFA’s work by providing a matching gift that helped the organization meet its $5,000 fundraising goal.
Impact That Will Shape 2026
Funds raised through this year’s match are helping power OFA’s most important initiatives for 2026, including:
- Farm Bill advocacy, ensuring organic farmers have a strong voice in federal policy.
- Farmer Workgroups, which strengthen peer learning, shared problem-solving, and community leadership.
- The Spring Farmer Fly-In to Washington, D.C., where farmers bring their expertise and on-the-ground realities directly to policymakers.
Visibility That Deepens Partnership
OFA sees increased engagement, larger gifts, and first-time‑ donations from farmers specifically because of this annual Giving Tuesday match, with some new donors later becoming more deeply involved in the organization.
Growing the Movement, Together
Our long-standing partnership with Organic Farmers of America reflects Bluestone’s belief that food systems, financial systems, and community resilience are interconnected. Helping OFA advance farmer led‑ advocacy and organic integrity is core to that vision.
