- A type of farming that excludes the use of synthetic pesticides, medicines, fertilizers, and GMOs.
- These are the primary sites for photosynthesis, where plants produce sugars using sunlight.
- These plants are planted in one year, grow through the year then flower during the next year. They germinate, grow leaves and stems in the first year. In the second year, they bear flowers and fruit.
