organic farms have been small family-run farms, which is why organic
food was once only available in small stores or farmers' markets.

How Do I Know if a Food is Organic?
Look
for the word "organic" on vegetables or pieces of fruit,
or on the sign above the organic produce display. The word "organic"
may also appear on packages of meat, cartons of milk or eggs,
cheese and other single-ingredient foods.
Foods
labeled "100 percent organic" must contain only organic
ingredients. Those foods labeled simply "organic" must
have at least 95-percent organic ingredients, by weight or fluid
volume, excluding water and salt.
Products
containing at least 70-percent organic content can be labeled
"made with organic ingredients."
Anyone
who knowingly sells or labels a product "organic" that
is not produced and handled in accordance with USDA Standards,
can face a civil penalty of up to $11,000 for each violation.
Foods
grown and processed according to the federal standards will in
most cases bear the seal "USDA Organic"; As its use
is voluntary, companies may choose not to display the seal.
