Below is a list of farms that are certified by Animal Welfare Approved (AWA), Certified Humane (CH), or Global Animal Partnership (GAP) Steps 2 and above. When a product shows the basic GAP label without a number, look for separate language on the package identifying the product’s step level. Farms are organized by county, but most will also sell products outside of their home county.
The ASPCA has identified three independent and meaningful welfare certification programs that ban unacceptable factory farming practices and provide a better life for animals through their standards and farm audits: Animal Welfare Approved, Certified Humane, and Global Animal Partnership. These certifications’ standards range from raising animals indoors with added enrichments, which the ASPCA considers to be baseline for better animal care, to outdoor access where animals have access to more space, fresh air, and sunlight, to pasture raised where animals have reliable access to space and growing vegetation – generally the highest welfare farming model.
The below chart shows where the ASPCA-recognized certifications fall with respect to these three types of higher welfare farming. Note that some certifications have multiple levels, different meanings for different species*. Some are strengthened by the presence of additional claims or certifications on the package, including Certified Grassfed by AGW (A Greener World) as an optional addition to Animal Welfare Approved or the Better Chicken Project for Global Animal Partnership certified chicken products. To learn more, visit www.aspca.org/labelguide.
Many farms allow customers to buy products directly and have specific hours for purchase and pick-up. We recommend that you call ahead to schedule a visit. If a farm doesn’t sell directly, it’s likely that its products can be found at a local farmers’ market. This information was correct as of May 17, 2023; please contact the certifier for the latest information.
If you are a farmer and feel your farm belongs on this list, please contact us at [email protected]. If you are a consumer looking for more humane foods, text the ShopKind Helpline to connect with ASPCA experts who will help you identify food that is truly better for farm animals.
