Get Up to Speed on CNG 101

Unlike other certification programs, Certified Naturally Grown's approach goes beyond enforcing regulations of prohibited substances and practices. We also promote best practices and scale-appropriate methods. We believe collecting and disseminating knowledge is essential to any grassroots movement.

CNG now offers lessons on the basics of meeting CNG production standards for produce operations. These lessons are available online, on demand, and free of charge. 

Our videos focus on CNG Produce Standards. They are a robust resource geared towards beginning farmers and folks who are interested in joining our community. Our videos are excellent refresher for farmers of all levels...We could all use a little CNG 101!

These 15 to 40 minute trainings cover the following topics:
  • Soil Management

  • Weed Management

  • Vegetable Pest Management

  • Vegetable Disease Management

  • Seeds, Planting Stock, and Variety Selection

  • Environmental Protections and Preventing Contaminants

  • Crop Rotation

  • Cover Crops
