How to verify USDA Organic home & cleaning
- Find the USDA Organic seal. The green-and-white USDA Organic seal must appear on packaging. "Natural", "eco" and "clean" are marketing terms, not certifications.
- Check the certifying agent. The label lists the USDA-accredited certifier (e.g. QAI, Oregon Tilth, CCOF). Cross-reference on the USDA Organic Integrity Database if in doubt.
- Read the organic tier. "100% Organic" = every ingredient certified. "Organic" = ≥95%. "Made with organic ingredients" = ≥70% and cannot display the seal. Pick the highest tier available.
- Layer with other ethics data. USDA Organic covers farming inputs — pair with Fair Trade for labour and B Corp or Leaping Bunny for wider ethics.
