What does "insecticide-free" mean?

In keeping with our commitment to Organic and Natural foods, Honest to Goodness is committed to providing foods that are as natural as possible.

In the first instance, we prefer organic ingredients which are certified to an organic standard that precludes the use of artificial insecticides. Where we handle non-certified organic foods, we limit such lines to ingredients that are as natural as possible. To this end, our Australian grown Insecticide Free Almonds are grown, stored and distributed without the use of artificial insecticides in the supply chain.

Our processor grades and packs the almonds sourced from orchards that do not use insecticides and then stores the almonds in an insecticide free environment, awaiting call up and delivery to our warehouse. Our warehouse is compliant with the Australian Organic Standard and is 100% free of the use of insecticides or misting practiced by other food warehouses.
