About Us

  

We are certified organic by Hawaii Organic Farmers Association using strict standards set forth by the California Foods Act of 1990.            

What is Organic?

Organic refers to methods of growing and processing foods that rely on the earth's natural resources. Pests and weeds are managed using earth-friendly means such as beneficial insects and mechanical controls. Organic farmers work to build natural nutrients in soil which help fertilize plants without reliance on synthetic fertilizers.

Organic Production

Offers food produced within nature's own balanced and fertile system.
  • Helps keep our air, soil, and water free of toxic chemicals.
  • Ensures that animals are humanely raised, without synthetic hormones or antibiotics, and only fed organic feed.

What is Certified Organic?

Products labeled "certified organic" have been grown and processed according to strict standards. HOFA annually inspects farms and facilities to ensure that no harmful chemicals have been used for at least three years, that foods are processed using sustainable methods, and that growers and processors keep detailed records of their practices.
