Organic vs. Conventional

We've been an organic family for many years now.  Initially that was met with resistance from people that I know, but it's becoming more and more accepted as people learn more about the farming industry.

If not ingesting harmful chemicals wasn't enough to convince you...perhaps this graph can show you the difference.  Yes, you pay a bit more...unless you grow it yourself.  I personally think it's worth the investment.



This chart only shows the nutritional value.  What about the pesticides?  Have you ever heard of the dirty dozen?   Perhaps this little snippet from CNN will inform you a bit too.
