What is organic farming?
True organic farming can only be carried out where there has been strict control particularly in respect of the use of agricultural chemicals and fertilisers. The Soil Association carries out rigorous inspections, which are governed by legislation. Organic food is becoming even more popular in the wake of increasing concern about animal welfare. With organic farming you need have no worries. Britains favourite traditional breeds thrive in an environmentally friendly atmosphere. Animals are reared with care and matured on natural foods, with the emphasis on home-produced organically grown forage. All our organic meat is processed and prepared locally so that the transport of animals is kept to a minimum. Organic grains, fruit and vegetables are grown using organically produced seed whenever possible. Plants are raised using a compost containing only organically approved products with no chemicals or inorganic fertilisers. The land on which crops are grown must be farmed in an organically sustainable way without the use of synthetic insecticides, fungicides, herbicides or fertilisers and is not contaminated by other local farming activities. Organic farming is simply the safe and sustainable alternative to modern intensive farming and factory-farming.
Why is organic food good for us? Natural feeding of crops and crop rotation produces a balanced supply of nutrients. Therefore, organic food should be more nutritious; and may have higher levels of vitamins and essential trace elements. Traditional farming and feeding on green summer pastures helps to produce the singular taste quality and succulence that makes organic food special.
