Why Organic

The primary reasons for choosing to grow organically is a concern that the chemicals used in non-organic farming are harmful to personal health, the soil quality and conservation. The goal is to have production enterprises (farms etc.) that are harmonious with the environment.

Canada presents that ideal environment for producing organic food simply because the country provides a large and diverse land base and has a cooler climate that reduces pest and disease problems.

Organic growing involves crop rotations to minimize the depletion of nutrients and promote pest control, cover crops and composted manure to maintain soil humus and other practices such as recycling organic residues and nutrients back into the soil to maintain healthy soil and promote good crop growth.
Organic meat and poultry is derived from livestock and hens that have only been feed with organic grains or grass’. The same applies to organic dairy products.
