SPCA Certified is an innovative farm certification and food-labelling program dedicated to improving farm animal welfare standards in Canada.

About the SPCA Certified Program

In response to growing concern for farm animal welfare, the BC SPCA developed SPCA Certified – the consumer's assurance that farm animals are raised to the BC SPCA's high animal welfare standards.
