Organic We are passionate about growing berries that delight you and nurture farm land for generations to come. Discover Organic Berries. What makes berries organic? Organic berries are produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations. Organic growers must implement an Organic System Plan OSP which integrates cultural, biological and mechanical processes that foster the cycling of resources, promote ecological balance and conserve biodiversity.

You can recognize our organic berries by the European organic quality mark, if this logo is on the packaging you are guaranteed that the product meets all legal requirements for organic products. We plan to expand our organic program while still offering a conventional offering. Producing quality berries on the most natural way is a high priority for us.
Also our conventional berries are grown in a natural way with lots of love and attention. At the moment we produce organic berries on a small scale as we want to make sure that also this assortment delivers a delightful experience. In organic farming a limited amount of pesticides, or crop protection, is allowed.
These, for organic farming allowed, methods must be of natural origin and may only be applied if other methods are not sufficient. The US and EU have an agreement on organics, this means that as long as the terms of the arrangements are met, organic products certified to the USDA organic or European Union EU organic standards, may be sold, labeled, and represented as organic in both countries.
Each country has its own control body, they monitor the organic chain and provide the certification and monitoring of organic products. Think more roundtables, fewer podiums. What advice do you have for individuals or groups looking to get more involved in SGMA? For example, supplemental water projects and water trading markets are important, but before creating a market, groundwater managers need to make difficult allocation decisions, as EDF suggested in its recent white paper on groundwater allocations.
We also work with our growers to maximize their use of recycled water whenever and wherever possible. We anticipate the price of water will increase in many areas where we operate as a result of reduced availability and the high cost of new infrastructure and water projects. Landowners and growers will need to closely track water use, and identify and seize opportunities to be more efficient.
In some instances, this will mean installing flow meters and reporting water use where previously not required. What drives that regional difference and how do these two challenges intersect? Where would the cultivars come from? Like Thomas and Goldsmith before them, Shaw and Larson decided to leave the university for the private sector. In particular, Shaw wanted access to the varieties that he had developed but had not yet released. I want my cultivars to be used.
Shaw is sixty-three, with a rust-colored boot-brush mustache and a high bloom in his cheeks. His eyes, which he squints warily, are the color of gingerbread. Monterey cypresses stooped witchily, wind-bent; in the near distance, the Pacific Ocean was visible behind fog.
Interestingly, C. Shaw knew it well, as did most of the people C. Shaw refused. Kawamura, a former state secretary of food and agriculture and a major grower who serves as the president of C. What was at stake, C. Without new cultivars, growers dependent on the university could not continue. The university, in a countersuit, accused Shaw of illegally breeding with the pipeline cultivars on behalf of his new company, while still employed by Davis.
They had the plants in their own hands. Knapp had sequenced the strawberry genome and secured a multimillion-dollar grant, and would be releasing new cultivars in the fall. We walked around the field, filled with hybrids that Shaw had designed, including the contentious Spanish crosses. Those were in a legal limbo, and might need to be destroyed. The rulings and decisions, Shaw later wrote me, had created obstacles, but they were not insurmountable.
Like Shaw, who trained him, VandenLangenberg is color-blind. With help, he found a ripe berry, red and plump and nicely shaped. It looked like a commercial fruit—with luck, it would be available in five years—and, best of all, it had no U.
I asked where it had come from. The information was proprietary. By Mike Peed.
