| Giving back to the environment so it will give back to us. What a novel idea that we as Americans have moved so far away from. (insert frown face here)! Welcome to Grower's Organic, LLC! I happened to stumble upon their website today when doing a bit of research and I agree with their approach. I am hoping to plan a visit soon! So what exactly does "organic" mean? It's more than just thinking about the consumer, but also the environment. We are plagued with faulty and environment destroying practices- pesticides, GMOs, etc. So not only do we as humans, ingest this mess of stuff but we also taint our earth, soil, & air with it as well. Organic means to practice with sustainability, conservation of soil & water; in other words, to enhance (not destroy) our environment. Organic meat has no hormones, antibiotics. Organic produce is free of dangerous pesticides, bio-engineering, and use of other synthetic products- basically it means it is real food! Both the food and the companies that handle food must be USDA certified organic. I am excited this business is so close to home! Giving back to the community, volunteer work, outreach programs, family driven, wellness benefits, weekly food box.- I think their on to something not only in consumer & environmental health but also in giving back to their employees and the community. I'm sold! |
