Sac's does NOT carry Organic Feed. NatureWise is manufactured by Nutrena, and Nutrena does not carry or make ANYthing organic. They are PRO GMO. I found this out simply by going to Nutrena's website, (and I also made a wasted trip to Sac's and found out the hard way). If you call Sac's they will tell you that NatureWise is organic, because on the NatureWise bag is states the feed is "Natural" which evidently is confusing for the buyer at Sac's. It' frustrating how ignorant people are in the business of selling animal feed. 

The following is from Nutrena's FAQs page, when asked about grains used in their poultry feed being GMO: 
[COLOR=444444]Yes.  Some of our products may contain genetically modified ingredients.  It’s important to remember that all grain is technically genetically-modified, as simple plant breeding is a form of genetic modification. [/COLOR]
[COLOR=444444]Agricultural biotechnology (including genetically engineering grain in a laboratory to enhance desired traits) is thoroughly researched, regulated, and safe to feed your animal.  GMO ingredients are prevalent in the feed supply chain.  Because grain for feed is purchased in bulk from large storage facilities, it is not possible to tell which corn has been genetically engineered.  It is possible to specifically purchase “non-GMO” grains, but this comes at a premium price.  Producing feed with non-GMO grains would be cost prohibitive.[/COLOR]
My response to this is, If other consumer minded companies can manufacture and sell organic feed then so can Nutrena. Louisiana needs to get with the program!

If you call Sac's they will tell you that NatureWise is organic, because on the NatureWise bag is states the feed is "Natural" which evidently confusing for some people. It' frustrating how ignorant people are in the business of selling animal feed. 

You don't mention where you live. I just picked up 2 bags of organic feed from the ms. Feed train co-op. You can by it at o'keefes feed in coventon la. I am also thinking in the future of getting a pallet and would sell some for whatever it cost me. But that's a few months down the road. The ms. Co-op has some extra bags but they go fast and she passed my town to day so it was delivered. Pam
