Certified Organic Soil, How Can I Safely compost?

[freyaulfr]

Hello Y'all
We are getting our land certified organic next spring. How do I compost in such way as to not harm our organic certs? I know to only compost organic food waste but is cardboard ok? I don't know of the trees it comes from have been sprayed etc.

Your compost is organic, unless you use some kind of chemicals. The cardboard is questionable in my book, Unless the ink is soy ink and the materials are recycled.
Even then I'd be leary of the cardboard. Hope this helps.
