Soil & Health Association of NZ Inc

The Soil & Health Association is the largest membership organisation supporting organic food and farming in New Zealand.

The Soil & Health Association:

• Publishes ORGANIC NZ magazine - NZ's leading source of information on organic issues.
• Supports the development of research into organics.
• Promotes organic production methods.
• Works to curb pesticide use, provide information and education on the effect of pesticides on health and the environment.
• Supports local and national initiatives to halt chemical trespass.
• Works to keep NZ farming, our food supply and the environment free of genetic engineering.
• Provides information to growers and consumers.
• Works on behalf of its members to lobby Government - influencing future policy.

The Association is totally reliant on public support for its advocacy role. We receive no government or other official support, nor is it sponsored or supported by any commercial organisation, political party, religion or other vested interest. The Association believes that when New Zealand finally honours its "clean green" reputation and adopts organic principles at every level of agriculture, a dramatic improvement in the nation's health will follow and the truth of its operating maxim "Healthy Soil - Healthy Food - Healthy People" will finally triumph.
