Are you organic?
The short answer? Yes. The long answer? We’re not USDA Certified as our standards are Beyond Organic. We believe that organic means a whole lot more than just not spraying chemicals onto food:
- We are committed to 100% biodegradable packaging.
- We never use GMO seed.
- We never spray pesticides or fungicides (even 'organic certified' ones).
- We don't use chemical fertilizers.
- We steward soil life through no-till methods.
- We pay a living wage to our 3-woman crew.
Our farm is an ecosystem that each plant and creature contributes to in order to grow you the healthiest, high quality food, flowers + goods.
