Today with declining farm profits, the ever-increasing costs of fossil fuels used to produce synthetic fertilizers, and the escalating expense of high tech mechanization, agrochemicals are no longer seen as a cheap, quick means to grow food or flowers.

Also shattered is the once cherished belief that synthetics could easily feed the world. An organic farm that employs an ongoing program of maintaining a healthy soil with natural fertilizers and biological pest controls can equal and often surpass crop yields of inorganic farms. Consequently, what is good for soil is good for people, too.

Since the last decade the organic movement has grown by leaps and bounds. Recognition by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, favorable attention in the media, and an ever-increasing desire by the public to use organic methods has given natural farming and gardening a new lease on life.

Just what is organic gardening and farming? Simply put, it is growing plants in harmony with nature by improving the soil and using organic fertilizers, amendments, and ecological pest controls. Organic growing revitalizes the soil, increases nutritional levels and flavor in fruits and vegetables, raises productivity for all plant and animal life, and recycles renewal resources. Above all, growing organically draws the grower into a closer bond with the local environment and ultimately into a deeper relationship with the greater ecosystem we call Planet Earth.
