Do you know what supermarket or delivery company sells organic minced chicken or turkey?

    I've been eating organic for two years now and I've not seen organic chicken or turkey mince anywhere sorry. Beef, buffalo, venison and lamb but not chicken or turkey.

    Where do you live?

    I know this company: www.riverford.co.uk
    Proper organic standars, forget about tesco, Sainsburys and all the big companies that are trying to hide the !!!! food they sell.

    You also can visit http://www.soilassociation.org
    This is one of the most respectable assosiation when it comes to organic food. They will explain you the different standars and also you can search for your local distribuitor.

    I hope it helps.

    Hi
    I buy most of my chicken / turkey from thr farmers market and they do turkey mince. Its not certified organic as they've not paid for the accreditation but certainly high welfare.
    Try your local farmers market

    Not necessarily true it could just mean they've not paid to be certified.
    Which as I understand it is expensive.

    Some schemes are more expensive than others. However if it's not certified, it's not organic, legally.

    A man and his wife sold surplus free range eggs at the gate. They became so popular that he couldn't keep up with demand. Instead of buying more hens, he bought in eggs, and sold them as being from his own hens. He was found guilty of fraud.

    A home-cooked meal is not the same as a home-made meal. Home-cooked merely has to be zapped from frozen in a microwave on the premises, home-made has to be made entirely on the premises.

    Organic has only one definition in UK.
