Karma Candy Inc. is USDA Organic certified by the Quality Assurance International (QAI)  (See Press Release) for all manufacturing lines. USDA's National Organic Program regulates the standards for any farm, wild crop harvesting, or handling operation that wants to sell a food product as organically produced. The Organic Foods Production Act (OFPA), enacted under Title 21 of the 1990 Farm Bill, served to establish uniform national standards for the production and handling of foods labeled as "organic." The Act authorized a new USDA National Organic Program (NOP) to set national standards for the production, handling, and processing of organically grown agricultural products. In addition, the Program oversees mandatory certification of organic production. The Act also established the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) which advised the Secretary of Agriculture in setting the standards upon which the NOP is based. Producers who meet standards set by the NOP may label their products as "USDA Certified Organic."
