And that’s why we’re inviting everyone to join us – to share their recipes, explore new flavors and be part of something special. We know everyone has something delicious to offer!

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I look out for when buying organic products?
USDA-certified organic labels are desirable. This guarantees that the product meets certain USDA standards. On all packages, boxes and cartons, look for the USDA Organic seal.
When you shop for meat, ensure that it comes from cows who are fed organic feed. Cattle are ruminants. This means they chew the cud. Ruminant cattle can be found with four stomach compartments: the rumen, the reticulum, omasum, abomasum and omasum. Organic feeding must be done on all organs of the animal in order to get the cow labelled organic 100 percent.
Buy chicken from only organic chickens that have been fed 100% organic food and are not given antibiotics. Chickens are omnivores. This means they can eat both plant and animal food. Omnivorous chickens possess a digestive tract made up of a crop.
Buy only dairy products from cows that have been fed organically grown feed. Just like ruminants have four stomachs, dairy cows have four. The fourth stomach compartment, the udder, is where milk comes from.
When purchasing other types of livestock, check the label to see what percentage of the diet the animals were fed. For example, pork may be labelled '95% organic.' This means 95 percent of the pig's feed came from organic sources.
What are the top organic vegetables?
Organic vegetables are the healthiest and most nutritious foods available to humans. They are among the most nutritious foods on Earth.
Organic produce is produced without pesticides or herbicides. These chemicals pose severe risks to our health and environment.
Organic produce contains more nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Because we absorb these nutrients better from organic foods, this makes them healthier.
Organic vegetables are delicious and safe to eat. Organic produce does not have side effects.
Every grocery store will carry organic fruit and vegetables. As long as they are produced according to USDA guidelines (which means they meet the standards set forth by the United States Department of Agriculture), they are labelled "organic." If you cannot find organic produce at your local grocery store, check out online retailers such as Amazon or Walmart.
Are organic foods better for us?
The Environmental Working Group's most recent report on pesticide residues found in food shows that organic fruits and veggies had almost half the pesticide content of non-organic. They found that organic apples contained eight times fewer pesticides than non-organic apples, while organic strawberries were four times cleaner than their conventional counterparts.
Other studies suggest that eating organic food reduces exposure to toxic metals like lead and mercury. One study revealed that children who ate organic meat had 33 per cent lower blood lead levels than their counterparts who didn't eat organic meats. Another study concluded conventional fish consumption should be stopped by pregnant women because it contains high levels of mercury.
Organic food is generally safer than non-organic. Experts recommend eating fresh fruits and veggies whenever possible to reduce the chance of developing cancer.
How do you know if your food is organic?
Any chef will tell you fresh ingredients are more important than any other ingredient. That's because when we eat well, we feel better.
The same is true of our food. Organics are traceable back to the source and provenance of their products. We also know it was not treated using harmful chemicals.
Organic foods can be made without synthetic pesticides. Organic farmers aren't allowed to use these substances.
However, organic farming is not an easy task. There are plenty of ways to grow them safely.
Sustainable agriculture is also known as organic farming. This is because organic farming uses less resources than conventional methods but provides enough nutrients for life to last.
Organic farming practices include crop rotations and cover crops, manure composting, intercropping, and cover cropping. These techniques can prevent soil erosion, improve water quality, and help reduce the risk of it happening again.
They reduce chemical runoff from waterways. Many of us live in urban areas so we have access to local farms that produce organic produce.
There are two types of certification programs for organic products. One is certified under the USDA National Organic Program. The other is certified independently by certifying authorities. Both require strict adherence of organic standards.
USDA seals and O Seals are symbols that indicate organic certification.
Statistics
- Popular clothing brands, like Patagonia, are labelled as organic by using 100 percent organic cotton for many of their styles. (en.wikipedia.org)
- As for organic meat, regulations require that animals be raised in living conditions that accommodate their natural behaviours (like the ability to graze on pasture), fed 100% organic feed and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. (usda.gov)
- When packaged products indicate they are “made with organic [specific ingredient or food group],” they contain at least 70% organically produced ingredients. (usda.gov)
- Brands participating in this challenge are committed to using 100 percent sustainable cotton by 2025.[5] (en.wikipedia.org)

How To
What happens to your Body When You Switch To Organic Products?
Organic products can be grown without synthetic fertilizers, hormones or antibiotics. They come from clean water sources and free-range animals. The term "organic", which means they don't contain additives or chemicals, refers to their non-containing any. This product was created by nature, and therefore does not contain harmful substances.
Natural means how food is grown. It is usually used to describe foods that haven't been processed into their final form (e.g., fruits). Natural foods are more fresh than other foods because they have not been subject to heat, radiation or chemical preservatives. Some people don't believe that natural means healthy. Experts aren't sure if there is much to be different between organic and traditional foods. Both types of food have been tested for safety and quality. Organic produce is safer than conventionally produced produce.
In general, most grocery stores now offer organic options. If you are looking for organic meat, poultry and eggs, check with your local grocery store. Some companies only sell organic products. Others have separate sections. You should look for USDA Certified Organic, Non GMO Project Verified (Biodynamic Association Certified), Rainforest Alliance Certified, and other certifications.
These items should be avoided if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. Pesticides are known to affect unborn babies and infants.
