Organic foods

🌿 What Are Organic Foods?

Organic foods are grown and processed without the use of:

• Synthetic fertilizers

• Chemical pesticides

• Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)

• Artificial additives or preservatives

They are produced using natural methods, like composting, crop rotation, and biological pest control.
