(fwd) Organic Agriculture is basically the growing of plants or the raising of animals without using certain chemicals or synthetics such as herbicides, pesticides, chemical fertilizers, etc. There is a strong emphasis on natural growing methods that build up the organic matter of the soil and hopefully improve the soil structure instead of wearing out the soil. I could go on and on, but I don't have the time right now. If you want more information about my organic operation, check out my web page or contact me directly . . .
