Saige asked:


Can you help me understand organic foods? Organic means that the foods were grown with out pesticides or fertilizers, right? does that mean all fertilizers, or just chemical fertilizers? I’m going to be using my compost to fertilize my garden and am not using chemicals (we have well water). Will that mean that the food I grow is organic because there’s no chemical fertilizer, or isn’t organic because I’m using fertilizer?

My vegetable garden is organic, and I don’t want to add chemicals, so I want to know if I should allow the grass clippings to be added to my compost.

I am really trying to make an organic vegetable garden but I spread some potting soil with plant food in addition to compost in my garden. Is plant food fertilizer?

X-Malleus asked:


I eat organic foods whenever possible. I’m going to be making a vegetable garden that is pesticide-free and, therefore, organic. However, I do know that chemicals linger in non-organic produce (which is, of course, why I don’t buy it!). Will compost made from non-organic foods compromise the organicity of my garden and vegetables? How do you know? Thanks!
