How tea farms occur as naturally organic

Most times, we find ourselves checking the packaging label of tea before buying to see if it's organic. Many nations require that any organically produced product get certified by an accredited certifier (USDA) before selling, labeling, and representing their products as organic, and tea is no exception. Organic tea is healthy for everyone because it’s grown on soil without prohibited substances for a period of 3 years before harvest.

The main distinction between organic tea and generic is growing tea without additional fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. Organic certification of tea implies the way the tea is grown on tea farms and applies in the way the tea is handled during processing up to packaging and labeling.

The main categories that make tea occur as naturally organic are:

• According to traditional methods, growing tea follows all the guidelines of organic farming, even though not validated by a certified organic agent.
• Tea is certified by a known organic agency or by regulatory organizations that verify that the tea you buy is organic through its labeling and soil screening.

Despite the policies and regulations of certification of teas as an organic product, tea, for the longest time, has been growing organically on farms, following traditional farming methods that have been in place from ancient times.

Tea farms are organically certified through organic regulatory agencies. However, it's worth noting that most tea occurs naturally organic because it has been grown on traditional farms for the longest time.
