Certification Agencies
For Bird Friendly® inspection and certification, producers should contact one of the following agencies listed below.
Auditors working with these agencies are trained by Smithsonian Bird Friendly team members on how to evaluate Bird Friendly certification criteria.
These companies also conduct organic certification (USDA NOP and equivalent certifications). Because Bird Friendly certification requires organic certification, combining the inspections can help reduce costs.
