IS YOUR FOOD ANIMAL WELFARE APPROVED?
Animal Welfare Approved farms allow animals to behave naturally and socialize freely. On these farms, you'll see animals breathing fresh, clean air, the way you've always thought it should be.
The Animal Welfare Approved standards are the most comprehensive and rigorous of all the animal-related accreditations available in the United States, as noted by the World Society for the Protection of Animals in a recent comparison of third-party certifiers.
The standards were developed in consultation with veterinarians, farmers and scientific experts in animal health and behavior. Rooted in the Animal Welfare Institute's 57-year track record of reducing the pain and fear inflicted on animals, these standards give careful thought to the needs of animals.
Only family farms who raise their animals with a pasture-based management system can earn our seal. We believe that families who own, labor on and derive a share of their livelihood from their farms have a true commitment and connection to their animals.
If you consume meat, dairy or eggs, buy Animal Welfare Approved products that meet the most comprehensive standards for the humane treatment of farm animals. Search for restaurants, grocery stores, food co-ops, farmers' markets and online sources for Animal Welfare Approved products..
