Why We Use Organic Ingredients

The term ‘organic’ refers to the way agricultural products and livestock are grown, raised, and processed. Organic agriculture is different than conventional farming. There are significant organic crops have to be grown without any GMOs, pesticides, synthetic herbicides or fertilizers. Organic livestock have to be raised in conditions accommodating their natural behaviors, with the ability to graze on pasture or natural food sources. They cannot be given any antibiotics or growth hormones.

Because organic products cannot be exposed to pesticides or treated with preservatives, they must be fresh. When you use products labeled as organic, you will not be exposing yourself to synthetic chemicals, specifically preservatives and pesticides. Most importantly, choosing organic is choosing to support sustainable agricultural practices that are healthier for the environment.
