It's been my understanding that 'they stole our word.'
Now knowledgeable people tell me that I can legally refer to my organically grown produce as 'organic' as long as I do not say 'organically certified,' which I am not.
My question: is this true? I thought the USDA now 'owns' the word and that 'organic' legally means the same as 'organically certified by the USDA' if I use it in conjunction with produce. Since I am not USDA certified, I cannot use it.
If I could use 'organic' in my advertising, though, it would sure cut through a lot of workaround verbage.
Do you know? Who is right? Paranoid me or my new friends who say that 'organic' is just fine for a non-certified farm?
Thanks -Allan
