Organic farming uses modern science combined with age old techniques to produce quality products free from synthetic chemicals, pesticides, genetic modification, fertilisers, and drugs or growth hormones in animals.
Buying certified organic is the only way to ensure your purchase is chemical and genetically modified free. Products certified by one of Australia's certifying bodies go through rigorous testing and follow strict guidelines to gain certification status.
Customers can purchase with confidence and assurance that certified organic products are just that. All products we sell are certified organic unless otherwise stated and each item on our price list also states the code of the relevant certifying body.
Buying certified organic products is a way of life.
It is a concsious decision to nuture your family's health and well being NOW and into the future.
It is standing up for our rights to be able to purchase food the way it was meant to be eaten - free from hidden nasties.
Certified organic is a vote AGAINST all Genetically Modified foods that are sitting on our supermarket shelves unlabeled!
Purchasing organic is caring enough for the environment around us to give it the respect and nourishment it deserves so we can leave it to our children with a promising future.
It's teaching our children about healthy food choices that they can carry throughout their life.
Some more reasons to purchase organic courtesy of the The Biological Farmers of Australia (BFA):
Good for the soil
Organic systems rely on a modern and scientific understanding of ecology and soil science, while also depending on traditional methods of crop rotations to ensure fertility and weed and pest control.
Good for the animals
Great emphasis is placed on animal welfare.
Good for the environment
Organic systems aim to reduce dependence on non-renewable resources. Organic production aims at all times towards sustainability whilst having best management of the environment and wildlife as a priority.
Good for people
Organic fruit and vegetables have been shown in a number of studies to contain more vitamins, nutrients and cancer- fighting antioxidants than non-organic food.
Organic tastes good
This is the simple message given by many people who eat organic.
No synthetic chemicals
Organic systems prohibit the use of artificial chemicals, pesticides and fertilisers. We don’t use these on the crops, and we don’t use these on our animals who go though life without the treatment of synthetic growth hormones or drugs.
No GMO’s
Organic food is produced without GMOs, which are prohibited in the BFA’s standards for organic food and farming.
