Welcome to BeyondPesticidesOhio.org (formally OCAMP.org)

Since 1985, Beyond Pesticides Ohio (formerly Ohio Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides) has been the only organization in Ohio that focuses exclusively on pesticide issues. Beyond Pesticides Ohio's mission is to demonstrate to elected and appointed officials the human health consequences posed by pesticides. Beyond Pesticides Ohio seeks to protect the public, in particular the most vulnerable (children and the chemically sensitive), by promoting safe and effective alternatives to the use of toxic chemicals.

We gratefully acknowledge the support of the George Gund Foundation and Beyond Pesticides.org.

Beyond Pesticides (formerly National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides) is the national organization that shares our mission and vision.

Safe Lawn and Garden Campaign

What do New York City, San Francisco, Cleveland Heights and Middleburg Heights have in common?  They all have banned toxic lawn chemicals from city properties!

Through a vibrant, educational outreach effort, our SAFE LAWN AND GARDEN CAMPAIGN will assist cities, schools, park districts, libraries, businesses and individuals in transitioning to cost-effective, organic lawn care practices. 

People will learn they do not need to rely on toxic chemicals to have beautiful and healthy lawns and landscapes.  The Campaign offers speakers, PowerPoint presentations and printed literature on why choosing organic lawn care is a wise choice.
