Depends on where you live. As far as I know the term is not well protected in many countries, so it means next to nothing there.

However, I live in the EU / Germany, where we have several organic farming standards that are all fairly strict. Generally, organic actually means organically produced food here, grown without artificial pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and so on.
