“getting over organic”
August 20th, 2003
there has been quite a bit of discussion since the “USDA Organic” label came out about the pros and cons of organic going so “commercial”. many organic purists were against the USDA label, arguing that the “organic” label should only be applied to foods that are not only chemically organic, but also farmed, processed, and distributed organically – that mass-produced, frozen t.v. dinners labeled “organic” takes away from the whole idea and aim of organic farming. this article, “getting over organic”, discusses this briefly. i’m not sure yet how i feel about the whole thing.
