WHAT IS ORGANIC ANYWAY?

Particular standards have to be met in order for a product to have the organic label attached to it. Simply put, this means:

• no growth hormones,
• no chemicals,
• no preservatives,
• no antibiotics,
• no coloring agents,
• no artificial ingredients of any kind used in the raising or processing of the food.

Federal organic standards do not allow:

• pesticides,
• synthetic fertilizers,
• sewage sludge or fungicides applied to foods before, during or after harvest.

Gelson's carefully selects only the best organic beef available from cattle that graze in a natural, stress-free, pristine environment. The land management and growing practices are in place to protect the soil, air and water resources. Discover the delicious flavor and tenderness of Gelson's organic beef.
