Is the manure from a large industral milk barn or a smaller organic farm? Manure is not all the same... Is this the one on dirty jobs ?

I am not sure about the organic nature but this is the one from dirty jobs. I have been using them for two seasons now and nothing is better. keeps a lot of plastic out of the landfills.

This one is not organic. Some people confuse the NAME OF THE COMPANY on the jar (which says "YS Organic Bee Farms") with the product actually being organic. It is not. This is raw non-organic honey. I don't really care about the organic part, just that it's raw, AND tastes delicious. (Which I assure you this one does!)

I contacted the company and it is NOT from grassfed cows. (And for at least some of us it DOES matter whether gelatin is from grassfed cattle, whether we view it as a personal health issue or an ethical one.)

This one is not, it is natural. Their organic coconut milk will say "organic" where this one says natural

I am an organic grower myself, and I have a friend that is a scientist at the USDA lab. Don't fool yourself, just because it has the USDA seal does not mean it's up to your organic standards. Very often organic farms use substances that are more dangerous than conventional pesticides and fertilizers. The USDA does not run everything through a GCMS, the company just has to meet certain standards, they can still lie about things. I bought this for my cosmetics business to do R&D;, and it is very good quality, so I am happy with it.

Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt. I bought some of this locally 4-5 years ago for my dog, and it worked wonderfully for her. Dogs don't always do too well with dairy based products. My wife and I tried it ourselves, and now prefer it above all other probiotic products. Since we can't get it locally, we get it online, order a couple and keep them in the refrigerator. I can't say they've gone bad--but we go through 1-2 a year with no loss of potency. Also, Green Superfoods are great, but are not probiotics. People--get some education; it's great stuff. Funny to see the "dirt" critiques. It is a soil-based product after all, thus the dirt.

I have a Garden Gourmet compost which looks exactly like this one. I don't if Garden Gourmet still exists but I've had it for 20 yrs (I have two). I live is southern Calif. Our city wanted people to compost so they had a special from a local nursery and I got two. Time has finally taken a toll on one of them so I am looking to replace it with this model. This past summer, a portion of the lower wall cracked so the door doesn't stay closed. The other compost has had no issues up this point, even after 20 yrs. There hasn't been any UV issues.

I imagine if it is not listed as being "organic," that it is not. That being said, BELIEVE the bad reviews. This is awful! Save your money!

You might want to contact the individual seller to make sure. I would guess the picture is the correct item and it is organic. Since it is fulfilled by Amazon, if they send the non organic one, they would make it right.

It is not something people grow (I associate the word "organic" with organically-grown); it is clay; it is as far as I know made of nothing but clay from the earth. The same for Frontier red clay which has more oxides (and for me works a bit better maybe for that reason as I have hypoxia). So it is "all natural" -- that is not man-made.

When I purchased this same seed in a larger container is said "certified organic" USDA. The smaller packaging just says organic alfalfa. It may be because it was repackaged in smaller containers. I don't see the larger containers for sale on the site anymore, but I have bought them in the past. It comes from the same source.

This product is not labelled as 'organic.' or not genetically modified. Heck, I'm happy it's not made by General Mills. Don't you think we should worry more about the working conditions of the migrant workers who are slaving away to keep this stuff on our table? Moreover, it's just wheat germ milled by Bob and his migrant workers. A lot of Bob's products are certified as USDA Organic. The wheat germ is not one of them. But Bob appears to be a good guy, so you should buy it anyhow and hope for the best.

It is normal milk powder. It's just organic so the cows are not given antibiotics or growth hormones. And they are fed a non-GMO organic diet.

Great question....... Typically we try to go the "Organic" route on most of our foods as well.......but if you did your homework you will see the the gov't owns the rights to the term "organic" as far as store bought foods is concerned, so how honest are they really being is the question? Now, why I continue to buy this product is that fact that they are oats off of a non-GMO (genetically modified organisms) farm, which to me, goes farther than putting an "organic" label on something. Not sure I fully answered your question, but I am up to this point still a strong advocate of Bob's Red Mill Rolled Oats. Especially good with Raw unpasteurized honey and raw/organic cinnamon!

Thanks for the information. I have never used raw milk, hence my answer. THis is great info to know, in case I get to a dairy! Thanks.

That is what I have understood about the term organic. Also, natural composting to boost soil rather than store fertilizer. I would contact the company directly before taking advice from a stranger.
