Welcome to the board. It's been a pretty negative one for as long as I have been watching (not as long as you). I like the company because I see its product as a compromise between organic farming and the use of synthetic fertilizers. In recent years there have been too many outbreaks of Salmonella and Listeria, and I wonder how many of the outbreaks associated with fruits and vegetables are the result of the renewed interest in organic farming and the use of animal waste as fertilizer.
