Are you Certified Organic?
We do carry some produce that is all natural, but we're not really allowed to call it organic because it's not certified. We choose not to certify organic because of the high cost, government invasiveness and extreme measures now associated with being such (e.g. a farm can not even have so much as a creosote fence pole on the property for three years to qualify). Some fruits and vegetables are nearly impossible to grow without the use of any pesticides whatsoever and we'd rather carry/enjoy those fruits and vegetables than to go without. We encourage the use of natural (vs. commercial) fertilizers and natural pest deterrents wherever possible and we are encouraging our farmers to move more and more toward "sustainable farming" and "organic practices", but our main selling points are farm fresh, local (Tennessee grown) and small farmer produced.
