unsprayed
No pesticides applied
Unsprayed describes plants, crops, or produce that haven't been treated with pesticides, herbicides, or other chemical sprays: unsprayed apples from the backyard tree.
The term appeals to those seeking food grown without synthetic chemicals, though it's less regulated than "organic." Gardens and orchards may be kept unsprayed to protect pollinators or avoid chemical residues.
