Organic Products

Organic foods are known for their superior taste and quality, but there are many reasons to go with organic foods. Products such as soy, milk, creams, juice, eggs, meats and many others are produced organically with no substances added in the growth or reproduction. From this comes the highest quality and purest foods possible.

Organic farming methods are helping to heal the earth by returning vitality and nutrients to the soil and keeping air and water safe from pollution. Pesticides and Herbicides are the toxins we find in polluted air, water and soil.

It is said that the organic production goes above and beyond government regulations, but how is that possible when the use of anything unnatural is prohibited. The USDA rules allow organic growth to be used as long as the rules remain intact. To help see that they remain intact is the CEO of Organic Valley, George Siemon.  He was instrumental in creating the USDA rules. Of course, the main rule of organic growth is that the foods are 100 percent organic, with no substances added. Also, 100 percent organic foods must be fed to the livestock.

For consumers who want to minimize personal exposure to toxins and support humane and sustainable agricultural practices, the organic labeling laws are extremely important. Today, all agricultural products labeled "organic" have been verified by an accredited certification agency as meeting or exceeding USDA standards for organic production. For example, all of Organic Valley's dairy, juice, eggs, meat, soy and produce meet the requirements to carry the new USDA Organic seal.
