We had our Organic Inspection this weekend. We are certified organic by NOFA-NY Certified Organic, LLC.  During our annual inspection our seed orders, fields, record keeping, and procedures are reviewed for compliance. Do you have a question about what being certified organic means?

If you are interested in finding out more about the requirements to be certified organic please take a look at NOFA-NY rules and regulations.

Our inspector this year was Paul Porter – Paul and his wife Kendra run a certified organic farm, CSA, and a food truck, Potatoes and Molasses, that serves fresh, wholesome food utilizing produce from their farm.
