[Ctyfc] Farm Field Crew job posting

[Greg Mast]

Looks like it's on the website here
https://driftwoodgolfclub.com/experiences/cuisine

I'm wondering whether the rules apply to the *product* only or the *farm* as
a whole. Like, can you call your *farm* organic if you don't market
the *products
you sell* as organic?
