What is Organic Gardening?

Organic gardening is a method of gardening that uses no synthetic chemicals or fertilizers. Everything used comes from a naturally occurring source. Examples of nutrients would include such things as manures, rock phosphate, compost, bone meal, ashes, etc. Pest control is maintained by using traps, predators, parasites, plant extracts, and other naturally occurring material.
