How do I know it is really organic?
Here is the Soil Association’s advice:
Any organic product sold in the UK must by law display a certification symbol or number. When you see an organic symbol, you can be sure that the product complies with minimum government standards. These standards are set by the UK government and meet European and international standards. Each certification body has its own symbol and EU code number.
The Soil Association organic symbol is the UK’s main certification mark, appearing on approximately 70% of organic food produced in the UK.
The Soil Association symbol tells you that produce has met and in some important areas exceeded minimum government requirements. Our standards cover every stage of production from the farm until it gets to your fork. They are continually developed to raise the quality of organic food.
