What does the term
"certified organic"
really mean?
Plants, seeds,
livestock, etc. that are produced in compliance with
the federal organic law.
In practical
terms this means the inputs (fertilizer, water, pest
controls, amendments, etc.) used to produce the
organic product are found in nature and free of
contamination from non-natural sources.
Additionally,
this also means that when you purchase clothing,
household products, furnishings, etc., you are
getting a product that was made with or by organic
standards, basically toxin free. This is just as
important as eating organically, because what we
sleep on, what we wear, what we bathe with, what we
breathe in our environment, all contribute to our
well-being...good or bad. So try to go all natural
and/or organic as much as possible. It's the best
for you, your family, and your planet.
