As the debate here in the U.S. grows on Genetically Modified Organisms, we know and understand the need to have clear and honest GMO labeling. This was one of our founding motivations in the industry to provide an alternative to the government’s lack of regulations or requirement and offer producers and their consumers an alternative to high priced Non GMO verification.”
