YES, Organic is Better

Yesterday, all the big media sites showcased a new U.K. report that concluded there’s really no difference between organic and conventional food. I shook my head, because it’s just a shame that we have to get these skewed messages that keep people from moving towards more natural and less chemical. I can just picture people skimming the headlines and thinking, “yep, just as I expected, organic food is a waste of my time and money.”

I’m really busy this morning because I’m headed off to Chi-town, but I wanted to share Civil Eats’ rebuttal article “Organic Versus Conventional Food: UK Report Flawed.” Please read it when you have a few minutes. Let’s help spread the truth and get Americans healthy! Shout out to Paula Crossfield who wrote the article. I’m thankful for you!

To mix in some positive inspiration, watch the first two episodes of Truck Farm, a film project about a 1986 Dodge Ram converted into a mobile garden that rides around Brooklyn, NY. It’s equipped with organic compost and heirloom seeds, a green roof, and a solar-powered time-lapse camera. Cool ish!
