Why Do YOU Go Organic?

 
     
 
Quality - quality of food, quality of life, quality of our future and our children's future.  Organic is just the right thing to do and the right choice to make.  Better for our health, tastes better, better for farmers (supports eco-farming), better for our water supply, better for our children, our children's health, and their future.  The more I learn, the more I'm sure that organic is the only choice.
 
     
  I don't want all those pesticides in the food my family eats.  
     
 
My husband and I both juice those greens every morning.  Eating organic greens enables you to absorb the energy of the earth, sun, air, & water since that is their main components.  Those greens are one of the best alkaline forming foods, excellent for people who have been diagnosed with cancer which thrives on acidity.  Cancer cells cannot live in alkaline or wheat grass. - Maryann
 
 

I am a passionate cook and I like good food. In my experience organic food is more carefully handled and so reaches my table with more flavor. Additionally, where possible non-chemical farming is the most Earth friendly method.

Jeffrey

     
 
Because I am tired of slowly killing me and my family by eating over processed, pesticide-filled, nutrient lacking, dead food.

Polly

 
  To avoid pesticides which likely contribute to cancer and various other health problems and diseases. If they kill bugs they must be doing something to us!

Dawn

 
  Why do I choose organic produce? To answer your question, it is because I have been educated on the effects of sewage sludge, chemical herb, insect, and pesticides on our lands soil; the literal absence of nutrients and healthy microorganisms in 'refined' soil and the lack of nutritional value found in gmo seeds. Even though acid rain negatively effects an organic based soil and crop, it is still better than conventional produce.

Sue

Because you are what you eat and I think everything out there is plain junk in designer boxes and wraps with no nutritional value for myself nor my family.

  I am just starting to get into organic. My 3.5 year old has asthma; and I am in midwifery school. Of course while learning about all of the natural options available for pregnant women, diet continuously comes up. Soooo....I have decided to eat well myself to set an example for my children and my clients. Plus, when I was a child my grandmother grew all our veggies and fruits in her garden. I remember how wonderful everything tasted fresh from the ground; since I don't have the availability to garden now organic seems the next best thing!
