Blackcurrants, wheat leaf, barley leaf, spearmint, and manuka leaf are all certified organic.

We always try to source organic green pea but when there is none available in New Zealand we use non-organic green pea. All harvested product is tested for residue and only used if no trace of chemical is found.

The broccoli sprout is spray-free but not certified organic.

The boysenberry is not organic as they are susceptible to botrytis (fungus) if not managed with a fungicide which is applied at flowering (not on the actual fruit). The boysenberries themselves are spray-free.

The broccoli sprouts are spray-free grown inside in a controlled environment. The only chemical used is a chlorine wash of the seeds at 2000ppm. The chlorine dissipates and leaves no residue in the finished product. The broccoli sprout powder is tested to ensure there are no residues detected. They can’t be certified as organic because the seeds are from conventionally grown broccoli.

The boysenberries are sprayed with fungicide at flowering to prevent botrytis setting in. The spray program is industry approved and designed to leave no residue at harvest. The boysenberries are sent away for third party residue testing and are only used if there is no residue.

We have a rigorous testing programme where every harvest is checked for spray residue. We are provided with test results and only use the product if it’s 100% residue free.
