However, times are chang ing and so arc our images. Bui, what is organic gardening? According to the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association, is "a farm ing mcthcxi that replaces the chemi cii! pcsticidcs, fertilizers und hcrbi* cides that most American agriculture relics on with more natural fonns of soil, pest and crop management. Organic farmers commonly use green manures, composted animal manures, and ground rock powders for fertilizer. They minimize pests and disease with crop rotations, re sistant varieties, botanically-dcrived {??est controls, natural predators ami careful management." Also, organically-grown vegeta bles and fruits sell at a premium (of 25 percent or more) over convcn tionally-grown produce. While in Atlanta several years THE PLANT DOCTOR C. BRUCE WILLIAMS Extension Area Turf Snrrinlht ago, 1 paid a visit to the DcKalb Farmers Market in Dccatur and was amazed to find an entire section of die store dedicated to organically grown produce. The produce man ager told me the organically-grown produce sold quite well. In North Carolina, the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association has put together a commercial certifica tion program for plant or animal pro ducts ilia i are organically produced. Growers applying for CFSA certifi cation must adhere to a strict set of standards and acceptable practices. In addition, this group put together an excellent booklet, titled The Green Book, that lists organic whole salers, retailers, processors and sup pliers. For S3 you can order a copy of The Green Book from the CFSA, P.O. Box 511, Pitlsboro, N.C. 27312. Most gardeners can, with ;i little study and rigid management, grow nearly all Iruits and vegetables or ganically. Growing crops the organic way requires that the gardener do a great deal more planning and be come more knowledgeable about pests and disease. The long growing season of east ern North Carolina has obvious pos itive advantages for the home gar dener. But on the negative side, in sects, disease and weed pressure are greater in this area than in most northern states. One of the misconceptions I often hear about organic gardening is that organic pesticides arc safer than syn thetic pesticides. This is simply not true. Many nat ural ly-dcrivcd pesticides arc very toxic to humans and the environ ment. Handle ail pcslicidcs, whether natural or synthetic, according to the label instructions and precautions. A successful organic gardener needs to know about gcnetic pest re sistance. crop rotation, cover crops, correct times of planting, local weather patterns, insect ana disease probclms, and on and on. To help, I have found two books on organic gardening that arc of im mense value: The Encyclopedia of Organic Gardening (Rodalc Press, Emmaus, Pa.) and The Encyclo pedia of Natural Insect and Disease Control (ed. R.B. Ycpscn, Rodalc Press, Emmaus, Pa.). The reference b<x)k formal of these texts makes it very easy to kxik up gardening problems and solutions.
