Organic Farmers in Oregon Need Your Help

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Cornucopia’s Take: Many people have called and emailed to alert us to this threat to Azure Farm in Oregon. The details, as explained in the video, seem quite concerning.  You can take action with the ideas suggested at the end of the video.


An Organic Farm Under Threat!
Keep Azure Farm Organic.
Stop local county authorities from spraying this certified organic farm with Roundup and other toxic herbicides.

Take action: Email Sherman County Court before May 17!

Azure Farms is a working, certified organic farm located in Moro, central Oregon, in Sherman County. It has been certified organic for about 18 years. The farm produces almost all the organic wheat, field peas, barley, Einkorn, and beef for Azure Standard.

Sherman County is changing the interpretation of its statutory code from controlling noxious weeds to eradicating noxious weeds. These weeds include Morning Glory, Canada Thistle, and Whitetop, all of which have been on the farm for many years, but that only toxic chemicals will eradicate.

Organic farming methods – at least as far as we know today – can only control noxious weeds—it is very difficult to eradicate them.

What’s Happening?

Sherman County may be issuing a Court Order on May 22, 2017 to quarantine Azure Farms and possibly to spray the whole farm with poisonous herbicides, contaminating them with Milestone, Escort and Roundup herbicides.

This will destroy all the efforts Azure Farms has made for years to produce the very cleanest and healthiest food humanly possible. About 2,000 organic acres would be impacted; that is about 1.5 times the size of the city center of Philadelphia that is about to be prayed with noxious, toxic, polluting herbicides.

The county would then put a lien on the farm to pay for the expense of the labor and chemicals used.

Take Action Now

Contact Sherman County Court before May 17 when the next court discussion will be held.

Contact info:

  1. Via email at [email protected] or
  2. Call Lauren at 541-565-3416.

Show Sherman County that people care about their food NOT containing toxic chemicals.
Overwhelm the Sherman County representatives with your voices!
