organic farm

Chemical-free growing operation

An organic farm produces food without synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or genetically modified organisms, relying instead on natural methods like composting, crop rotation, and biological pest control.

Certification standards vary by country but generally require avoiding artificial chemicals for several years before land qualifies.

They buy their vegetables from a local organic farm.
