Ecoventure Begin is a multi-media project created by me, Joanne Ayris, a final year Multi-Media Journalism student at Bournemouth University.
I am on a one woman mission to get to the bottom of all things organic.
I'll be scouring the country meeting farmers, talking to growers, hosting debates and even having a go at growing my own organic veg.
But what IS organic? According to the Soil Association :
"Our definition of organic food is food that is produced using environmentally and animal friendly farming methods on organic farms. These methods are legally defined and any food sold as ‘organic’ must have been inspected and registered by a certification body"
Organic requires that no nasty chemicals or fertilizers are used on plants or in animal feed. Just natural soil and a nurturing hand.
