The National Organic Program was established in 2002 in an attempt to give meaning to the term “organic” food and give consumers confidence in the organic label.
The organic standards are a minimal set of requirements a grower needs to meet in order to be Certified Organic.
The best organic food grown today comes from farms that do far more than what is required for organic certification.
At Maharishi Vedic City Organic Farms, we apply the latest in organic soil science to balance soil minerals and enhance soil biological health, we use biodynamic farming practices, and apply the knowledge of Maharishi Vedic Agriculture to ensure we are growing the highest quality, way beyond organic, produce available.
As consumers, there is more you can do to go beyond organic: Get to know your farmer and your farm. The CSA model is ideal for this. Our members receive weekly newsletters from the farm and are invited to farm days several times a year to enjoy fresh air and great food. Members are also always welcome to help out on picking and packing days for the CSA. Get away from the uncertain and often dangerous industrial food supply. Become a part of your safe, fresh, and healthy local food supply, join our CSA today and get way beyond organic.
