Quality and Standards

    Organic

    When we are certified, it means we are inspected to both the Canadian and American standard every year, plus the occasional surprise "random" audit. As a result, our organic certifier (the people who inspect us) reward us with a certificate which lists our operation as compliant, and they give us a second document listing all the products that are certified.

    Pro-Cert (formerly OCPP/Pro-Cert Inc) has been our organic processing certifier since 1997. They have helped and guided us towards better organic product integrity. All of our Organic products meet the COR (Canadian Organic Regulation) and are acceptable to the USDA-NOP equivalency agreement. Recently the NOP-SOE rule came into force - it's like the next generation of organic certification standards with stringent requirements to prevent fraud in the organic industry.

    We encourage everyone to ask for and review the organic certificates of the companies they deal with on a regular basis in an effort to increase the transparency and reliability of Organic products in the marketplace, and to bring attention to fraudulent Organic claims.

    Please note that not all of our products are organic. We sell non-organic products too, where markets and economy dictate. The products we sell that are not organic are marketed as "Ethically Wildcrafted" or "Pure Quality"
