Organic Way imports quality organically grown products from different countries and processes them in the USA for the US market. Therefore, all our products are USDA and Kosher approved and perfectly safe for use.Our cut and sifted marshmallow root means that the roots aren't sold in whole form, but rather "cut" into smaller pieces and then "sifted" to remove the small pieces and dust that result from the cutting process.
