USDA ORGANIC







What is all the fuss about Organic anyway ?  In order for a product to be classified as Organic it has to be certified by the Federal Government  National Organic Program certified agent.

Generally speaking Organic certification requires that farmers and handlers document their processes and get inspected every year. Organic on-site inspections account for every component of the operation, including, but not limited to, seed sources, soil conditions, crop health, weed and pest management, water systems, inputs, contamination and commingling risks and prevention, and record-keeping. Tracing organic products from start to finish is part of the USDA organic promise.

The official Government organic label is marked USDA in green with a brown circle arount the outside. You will see this certified label on all organic seeds that we give our customers as members of our Garden Community at https://www.groworanicvegetablegardening.com
