Certified Organic Land Care Professional (COLCP)

COLCP Certification is a credential offered by organizations such as the Northeast Organic Farming Association (NOFA) that recognizes individuals who specialize in organic land care practices. Certified Organic Land Care Professionals are trained in using natural and organic methods for soil management, pest control, and plant care, avoiding synthetic chemicals and promoting ecological balance. This certification ensures that professionals can design, install, and maintain landscapes that are safe for people, pets, and the environment. For clients, hiring a COLCP-certified professional ensures that their landscape will be managed using practices that support organic principles, resulting in a healthier, more sustainable outdoor space.
