Choosing the Best Organic Bread
Looking for bread made from high quality ingredients has become challenging. Many contain preservatives, processed oils and additives, and perhaps the most unappealing, glyphosphate residues. Let your search end here! All of our fully sprouted Manna Breads as well as our sourdough breads are certified organic. Our organic breads are made with only whole-food, plant-based ingredients that you and your family can feel good about eating.

None of our ingredients are GMO. All of our products, including our breads, are GMO free.

USDA Organic labeling is broken down into 4 subcategories.
- 100% Organic (contains 100% organic ingredients. E.g. a piece of fruit)
- Organic (Contains 95% or more organic ingredients)
- Made With Organic Ingredients (70% or more organic ingredients)
- < 70% Organic Ingredients ( < 70% organic ingredients)
All Manna Organics products contain between 95% and 100% organic and are therefore certified “Organic”.
The regulatory requirements needed to obtain this certification requires that our products do not contain Genetically Modified Organism (GMO)/ Genetically Engineered (GE) ingredients, artificial preservatives, artificial colors, artificial flavors or additives and the ingredients are not grown with toxic pesticides, chemical or petroleum based fertilizers or fumigants.
