About Us

Having worked both for major Organic Certification agencies as an inspector, reviewer and certification representative, and as an independent organic consultant with a prominent consulting firm, anything from the most humble farm to the most complex multi-ingredient processing and packing operations, Lois Christie has seen it all from both sides, making her and the highly-trained and well-organized staff at Christie Organic Consultants uniquely qualified to assist you with all things organic. From the time a seed goes into the ground until the time it blooms and is harvested, processed, packed, shipped and sold in retail stores, Christie Organic Consultants will be there every step of the way to ensure that your Organic System Plans and methods are in compliance with the USDA National Organic Program (NOP), as well as many international standards such as Canada, the EU, IFOAM, Japan and Switzerland. Do you need guidance in the setup and/or management of your organic program? Are you growing, processing, handling, packing/co-packing, shipping or selling organic products? Or do you perhaps need assistance with responses to difficult review letters you have received? Do you have notices of suspension, appeals, mediations, or settlements pending? For these or any other needs within the organic industry, you have come to the right place! Christie Organic Consultants – “Bringing health & sustainability to the world’s table.”
