Why Organic?

---

At Jo’s Organics, organic isn’t a trend — it’s a principle we’ve stood by since 1999. Choosing organic food is about protecting health, supporting the environment, and investing in a better future for generations to come.

Organic food is grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or artificial fertilisers. This means fewer toxic chemicals in the food we eat and less cumulative exposure over a lifetime — especially important for children and developing bodies

Organic farming works with nature rather than against it. It focuses on:

• Building healthy, living soils
   
• Protecting waterways from chemical runoff
   
• Supporting biodiversity, pollinators, and wildlife
   

Healthy soil doesn’t just grow better food — it also helps store carbon and combat climate change.

Animal welfare is a core part of organic standards. Organic livestock farming prioritises:

• Natural diets and outdoor access
   
• Higher welfare conditions
   
• Reduced use of antibiotics
   

This leads to healthier animals and more ethical farming systems

When you choose organic, you’re supporting farmers who invest time, care, and skill into sustainable practices that protect the land for the long term. These methods may take more effort, but they create resilient farms and healthier ecosystems.

We believe the choices we make today shape the world our children inherit. Organic farming helps reduce the chemical burden placed on future generations and encourages a deeper connection between people, food, and nature.
