A slug barrier.
 

If you have empty clear-plastic bottles which once contained Coke or
lemonade or the like( say about 1 to 2 litres),cut off the tops and
bottoms so that you have a tube about 9 inches long and put it over the
seedling.Select the size to suit the height of the mature plant and you
will have quite an effective organic slug barrier.

Plastic isn't organic, but I know what you meant... ;o)

If you read it carefully, it was the *slug* that he said was organic, not
the barrier. ;)
