Natural (organic products)
Explanation:
Natural organic products. If this is to be in English. While "in natura" is Latin and many would understand it, Latin is rarely seen in commerce, in grocery settings, etc. At worst, it would be a direct translation: "Organic products 'in nature'", but "natural" is better and more common. :)

You could translate as countryside organic foods since natura means nature, and escencially, that is what is meant by "Produtos orgânicos “in natura”" is that the food is produced as freshly as possible and in totally organic conditions.

in natura
raw, unprocessed


Explanation:
Alimentos IN NATURA
Alimentos in natura são os que não foram manufaturados, não passaram por uma indústria, isto é, são naturais.
O peixe, o ovo de galinha e a carne fresca são alimentos in natura.
http://www.consumidorbrasil.com.br/consumidorbrasil/textos/e...

Raw, Unprocessed Products - Though an import permit is required for raw, unprocessed products, the requirement for submitting processing and packaging procedures does not apply.
http://www.fsis.usda.gov/regulations_&_policies/Argentina_Re...

raw, unprocessed organic products ou apenas
unprocessed organic products

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF) regulates imports of fresh produce and does not recognize USDA accredited certifying agents. However, USDA accredited certifying agents—or any other certifying agent—may apply for MAF recognition. Once recognized by MAF, any certifying agent can issue organic certifications for *unprocessed organic products*.
