The Rainforest Alliance green frog seal certifies farms — primarily of coffee, cocoa, tea, bananas, and palm oil — that meet a sustainability standard combining environmental, social, and economic criteria.
The 2020 standard added a "Sustainability Differential" — a mandatory cash payment from buyers to producers on top of market price — and a "Sustainability Investment" to fund on-farm improvements.
The Rainforest Alliance merged with UTZ in 2018, and the green frog now covers products previously bearing the UTZ label.
