[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. Pretty much everything is organic. The meat is more expensive, especially the bison, but we source eggs from a  farmer friend for only $3/dozen and just eat less meat which is better for you anyway.

We have an extensive garden so we control what goes onto and into it. Heirlooms and other varieties have enhanced flavor and nutrition. We also buy Rancho Gordo instead of Bob's Red Mill, for example. If we weren't able to do that, plenty of services and local food co-ops will ship. Foodocracy crates are fun, too.

It matters to us from a moral standpoint as well as health and environmental. We care how the animals live and are treated and that whoever we are buying from is paid fairly and not exposed to chemicals. I'm aware they still use some. There are many ways to do "organic" and netting fruit trees is different than spraying, organic certification approved or not.

Organic and grassfed beef and milk have more omega-3 in them and taste better. We can afford it and believe in the health benefits. [/quote]

What’s wrong with Bob’s Red Mill? And I’m not sure how Rancho Gordo is a substitute for Bob’s - RG sells beans and a few other random items, I don’t think they sell oats, grains, baking flours, etc. [/quote]
