Wild herbs are just that – wild… They grow in nature, unaided and unsupervised by humans. Thus, it is impossible to control them the way agriculturally cultivated herbs are controlled. And that is the reason why they cannot be called ’organic’.

The term ’organic’ is attributed to herbs grown in controlled areas where no artificial fertilizers or pesticides are used. In Denmark, organic products are labelled Ø (organic = økologisk in Danish) to make it easy for consumers to distinguish between organic and conventional products.
