I live in a national forest. A big player company has a hundred year lease here. An association rents from them and 80 camps comprise the association. This association has a board. The board has a president. The big player company has a land representative. She has a supervisor, and he has a department chief.
They are inspecting a lot of their holdings, and one of the many things they are inspecting is my garden!
My garden has to pass inspection!
It is almost pure organic. I do use Osmocote, but that does not kill my worms. I use ZERO poisons. No weed killers. At very worst, I lightly spray any rare encroaching poison oak with Clorox. Small sprays.
Every couple years the EPA hires a contractor to test for heavy metals. That is why I can't use metal fencing stakes, and my chicken wire can only have incidental contact with the ground.
