Rendleman Orchards Now EcoCertified!
We are proud to announce our recent achievement of Eco Certification, joining a community of forward-thinking farmers who are committed to sustainable and environmentally responsible fruit-growing practices. We have achieved this by ensuring that our farming methods benefit both the environment and local community.
The EcoCertified Fruit program empowers farms across the United States to produce high-quality fruit while preserving their ecosystems. By earning Eco Certification, Rendleman Orchards demonstrates its dedication to environmentally friendly farming and a commitment to protecting local natural resources and future generations of consumers. At Rendleman Orchards we strive to produce the highest-quality fruit in the most ecologically responsible way. Achieving this certification is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and especially the people we grow food for.
We have met requirements for quite some time, but the addition of our flower field acreage, along with the new apiary and natural habitat for birds and butterflies, has contributed greatly to our eco methods. We have worked closely with an entomologist to make informed choices on crop protectants moving forward to ensure that our fruit remains as eco-friendly as possible for the environment and our consumers.
When consumers buy fruit with the EcoCertified label, they can be confident that they are supporting local farms like Rendleman Orchards, which prioritize environmentally sustainable growing practices. EcoCertified fruit is not only delicious, but also safe for the environment, contributing to the long-term health of ecosystems and local communities.
The EcoCertified Fruit program has supported farmers in the northeastern and eastern U.S., who grow fruit using the most ecologically friendly practices. Rendleman Orchards is now happy to be on the forefront of this movement in the Midwest!
