We are excited to be enrolled in the EcoCertified program this season!
EcoCertified is a rigorous, science-based, 3rd party-verified method of production that exemplifies the most sustainable way to grow apples and stone fruit in our region at a commercial scale.
Eco practices:
• Protect pollinators.
• Keep damaging insects in balance with natural predators.
• Promote soil and tree health.
• Emphasize natural pest management.
The standards for the EcoCertified program were developed by agricultural scientists at the IPM Institute of North America. They pair sustainable practices for our region with the practicalities of tree fruit production. They focus on farming with nature and avoiding harsh outdated products. The EcoCertified label means local, done right! Learn more about the EcoCertified program at www.redtomato.org/eco.
