The USDA does the majority of organic certifications in the USA, if you want to google around to do some research.

As OP mentioned, the land must not be used for three years until the usda will give you the organic stamp. You could in theory only do a portion of your land, but then I imagine that any equipment used to touch non-organic food products would not be allowed to also be used for organic. So you would need two sets of equipment.

I worked at a whole foods produce department for about 5 years during high school and college. The rules about organic produce touching anything non organic were very strict.
