Organic
Seriously, but why?
Our mission is to become the largest organic fruit and vegetable farm in the world, feeding the hunger for healthy, organic, non-GMO produce. From the beginning, Simply Natural Farms has made a super conscious decision to farm organic with the intension to minimize the human impact on the environment. Simply Natural Farms are proud to be certified 100% organic by the USDA and Global Gap. Some might say we´re to cool for school, but at Simply Natural Farm developments, we produce our own bio-fertilizers and bio soil amendments to grow our certified organic fruits and vegetable. We mitigate the use of toxic fertilizers and pesticides, through the use of permaculture practices on a significant scale. This is done through practices that don´t affect the natural ecosystem surrounding our farms by using nature to work with us. It´s really very simple, we don´t believe in GMO’s so we just don’t use them.

Better Food for your body
Do’s and Don’ts
To receive an organic label, farmers are not allowed to grow their crops using pesticides and artificial fertilizers. Health expert have been warning us about the potential danger of those substances used in conventional farming. Common pesticides elements have been linked to cancer, development delays in infants, ADHD prevalence and reduced sperm quality. The British Journal of Nutrition also found that organic crops are 48% less likely to carry cadmium, a heavy metal that “exerts toxic effects on the kidney, the skeletal and the respiratory systems” (WHO-World Health Organization). Note that even though there are some restrictions on the use of chemicals, non-organic farmers can choose from a range of 320 pesticides and they use them frequently. However, when you buy organic, there´s no artificial colors and preservatives in your food.
Might Be the solution to feed the planet
Can we Do it?
Since the world population never stops growing, lots of researchers have been looking for a way to feed the billions of appetites across the globe. 500 food production scenarios have been reviewed to see the feasibility of feeding 9.6 billion persons by 2050 without expanding farm areas. “They found that enough food could be produced with lower-yielding organic farming, if people become vegetarians or eat a more plant-based diet with lower meat consumption. The existing farmland can feed that many people if they are all vegan, a 94% success rate if they are vegetarian, 39% with a completely organic diet, and 15% with the Western-style diet based on meat” (The Guardian). The idea that everyone would give up meat is obviously unrealistic, but it is the proof that organic farming is part of the solution
