Why buy a Fair shirt, tote bag, or poster?

The proceeds from the online Country Store go towards helping the  Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA) achieve its mission.

MOFGA follows strict sustainability guidelines for all products sold in the Online Country Store. Take a look at the graphic below to learn about how our Common Ground Country Fair T-shirts are made.

The Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA) is a broad-based community that supports farmers, empowers people to feed their communities, and advocates for an organic future. Our vision is a future where local organic farming nourishes all people, and sustains thriving ecosystems, healthy communities, and fair economies.

It Has Always Been About Organic

Founded in 1971, MOFGA has been part of Maine’s organic agriculture and sustainable living movement from the beginning. MOFGA is the oldest and largest statewide organic organization in the United States. We have been certifying organic farmers since 1972, and MOFGA Certification Services is one of the country’s oldest certification programs. Read about our history here.
