At Honeydew Farm, we grow food you can feel good about. But what does "organic" really mean—and is it worth it?
The Truth About Organic Labels
The USDA Organic label has strict requirements—but for small farms, the paperwork and cost can be more than the farm can manage. That doesn’t mean the food isn’t grown with care.
At Honeydew, we:
Use only organic seeds whenever possible
Avoid synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers
Focus on soil health and crop rotation
Choose pollinator-friendly growing practices
We follow the heart of what it means to farm organically.
Why The Truth About Organic Farming Matters
Organic-style farming protects the soil, your health, and local biodiversity. Plus, local farms like ours are more transparent—we can literally show you what we’re growing and how we do it. That’s the truth about organic that most labels can’t tell you.
