On April 25, 2025, we completed our LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) audit with a

perfect score across every category — soil health, biodiversity, water and energy use, crop

nutrition, pollution control, and community engagement.

What is LEAF Certification?

‍

LEAF is a globally recognized standard that promotes Integrated Farm Management — a

holistic approach that goes far beyond compliance. It evaluates how a farm treats the land, the

water, the ecosystem, and the communities around it. Scoring perfectly across all categories

places us in a select group of global leaders in sustainable agriculture.

This is what Born was built for.

‍

When we launched Born Farms, it was rooted in the belief that everything starts at the source.

Through Born, we integrate technology and nature to build a food system that is predictable, transparent,

and designed to nourish both people and the planet. Our regenerative methods focus on revitalizing soil health,

enhancing biodiversity, reducing chemical inputs, and improving long-term productivity. LEAF doesn't just align with that mission —

it validates it.

‍

What this means for our buyers.

‍

For produce professionals in the U.S. and Canada, this is more than a sustainability credential. It means supply chain security,

full traceability, and compliance with key retail and foodservice sourcing standards — with reduced risk of shrink or rejection.
