These large, golden-green organic olives are naturally fermented to produce their sweet, fruity flavor and stuffed with bits of organic garlic.
All Mediterranean Organic products are certified organic. The farms, orchards and groves that yield them have been producing naturally for centuries in conditions that are untouched by modern chemicals.
This definition of "organic" was passed by the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) at its April 1995 meeting in Orlando, FL.
"Organic agriculture is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain and enhance ecological harmony."
For a grower or processor to become certified, they must adhere to strict uniform standards which are verified by either a private or public certifying agency. These standards include:
- The land on which the organic food is grown must be free of prohibited substances for three years prior to certification.
- Farmers and processors must keep detailed records of the farming methods and their materials used in production.
- All of these methods and materials are inspected annually by a third party certifying agent.
- All farmers and handlers are required to maintain written documentation plans detailing their organic management practices.
