Organic Certification at Rock Spring Farm

Certified Organic

Our farm is Certified Organic to USDA standards by the Midwest Organic Services Association. Certification is your guarantee that we not only act organic, we follow all of the rules that make Organic a meaningful label. 

Certified organic products have been grown and processed according to strict organic standards. Farms and processing facilities are inspected and reviewed annually to ensure that organic methods and management techniques are being practiced. Certified organic farmers and processors must keep detailed records of their practices. These records are just as important as the sustainable methods used out in the fields.

We grow our produce following strict organic guidelines, without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Our vegetables, herbs, and flowers are certified organic by the Midwest Organic Services Association. We take this practice a step further with an emphasis on proactively avoiding the problems by using composts, beneficial insect habitat, and organic minerals to buffer the effects of pests, diseases and weather.

This Earth-friendly, socially responsible way of farming permits us to produce nutritious, good tasting food while enhancing our local environment and community.
