Why
buy Organic ?

It
tastes better!
Check out a few ideas
here...
Your
Health & Quality of Life
- Improves levels of vitamins and other nutrients in
your food and avoids disease and cancer causing
toxins.
The Environment
- Organic farming improves soil health and fertility
and avoids toxic chemicals that can enter our bodies
through the air, water and ground, and avoids
contaminating everything around us.
Sustainability
- Organic farming provides a means to supply us with
food without taxing finite resources into
“extinction”.
The Economy
-Localized organic farming reduces food miles, and
builds opportunities for local employment. In the
1930's farming employed 50% of the population, now
it employs just 1-2%. Organic uses fewer machines
and more human power.
Biosecurity & National Security
Small scale organic farming disperses food
production. It keeps heritage varieties alive. It
keeps agriculture more genetically and biologically
diverse. It keeps prices and availability more
stable in the event of natural or man-made
disasters.
“Organic” is not just a product label, it is a
way of thinking and a way of life. Organic food
is not for everyone. It is only for those who care
about what goes into their body and want to live a
longer and healthier life.
Improve your health, return to Whole Foods.
Clean water, organic meat & eggs, raw dairy,
untainted fruits and vegetables and the proper
carbohydrates are all things wee need to live. Most
people don't realize we NEED fat and cholesterol to
live. The key is balance and avoiding processed
foods. Learn about your food and learn about
yourself. We’re not experts in lipid (fats) biology,
but we do know of someone that is. You can read many
