Australian Organic Meats have come on board as Gold sponsors of National Organic Week which runs from September 7 -13.
The AOM group is a partnership between the O'Leary and Tully families, who produce and supply high quality organic meat to places including South Korea, Hong Kong, the Middle East and the USA.
Tyla Comerford, who is the administration assistant with AOM, said the aim of the week long campaign is to also raise consumer awareness about the benefits of organic products.
"We're a regional business supporting regional jobs... through that we're helping build the awareness out here," she said.
"Which is why we have jumped on board to support National Organic Week, to continue supporting the farmers that support us as a company."

Ms Comerford said AOM have noticed in the past few months during COVID-19 that more people are wanting to become aware of what they're eating.
"Consumers are more conscious of what they're buying and where their money is going, and seeking more natural, greener products," she said.
"We're trying to build confidence with our customers and bringing that out to the bush and continue raising awareness of about innovative and sustainable farming."
To celebrate National Organic Week a range of events are being held across the country.
Locally, Canowindra's Rosnay Winery are hosting a free farm walk, barbecue and organic wine tasting.
