Quote From A Customer Response Received:
“the fact of the matter is that you really know something’s organic when you find bugs! they obviously wouldn’t have made it that far in a non-organic growing environment, so better than any certification or seal on a package, the presence of creatures let you know the plant was healthy and untainted by chemicals”
The National Organic Standards Board Definition of “Organic”
(taken from the Organic Trade Assoication website at http://www.ota.com/)
“Organic agriculture is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain and enhance ecological harmony. ‘Organic’ is a labeling term that denotes products produced under the authority of the Organic Foods Production Act. the principal guidelines for organic production are to use materials and practices that enhance the ecological balance of natural systems and that integrate the parts of the farming system into an ecological whole. Organic agriculture practices cannot ensure that products are completely free of residues; however, methods are used to minimize pollution from air, soil and water. Organic food handlers, processors and retailers adhere to standards that maintain the integrity of organic agricultural products. The primary goal of organic agriculture is to optimize the health and productivity of interdependent communities of soil life, plants, animals and people.”
