Very interesting information from the Organic Consumers Association:

Francisco Superior Court against falsely labeled " organic " personal care

companies that use non-organic pesticide-intensive agricultural and/or

in their products. Defendants include, among others: Hain-Celestial (Jason

" Pure, Natural & Organic; Avalon " Organics " ); Levlad (Nature's Gate " Organics " );
