Tyner Pond Farm: Raising the Bar with OnMark Certifications

We're thrilled to announce that today we successfully passed our annual OnMark certifications for both organic and grass-fed practices! While we've always been committed to these standards, independent verification offers an extra layer of accountability and transparency for our valued customers.

Why Do We Seek Third-Party Certifications?

At Tyner Pond Farm, we believe in doing the right thing, even when no one's watching. However, we understand the complexity of food labels and the desire for guarantees beyond our word alone. Certifications like OnMark provide:
  • Verification: OnMark's rigorous inspections ensure we meet (and often exceed) the highest standards for organic and grass-fed farming.
  • Trust: These certifications help us build trust, especially with customers who may never have the chance to visit our farm.
  • Accountability: Seeking annual inspection keeps us accountable and pushes us to continuously improve our practices.
