How do I know it's organic?
Organic is a term defined by law. Any food products labelled as organic must meet a strict set of standards which define what farmers and food manufacturers can and cannot do in the production of organic food. So it is important to look for a genuine certification symbol for assurance that the product is truly organic.
All farms wanting to produce organic food have to be certified by one of the registered organic certification bodies, and must go through a two-year conversion period before obtaining organic status
Unlike many other food assurance schemes, the combination of legally defined standards and regular third-party inspections, mean that when you buy an organic product you can be confident that the claims made on the label about how the food has been produced can be believed.
