The organic foods market is BOOMING
Categories: Alternative & Green Health, Nutrition & Supplements
Organic foods and produce are really catching on -- years ago you had to go to a special market or private store to find good products, but today you can find them practically everywhere. Even big national chains are quickly increasing their organic inventory.The down side? Organic farmers are struggling to keep up with demand. Sure, there are bigger problems than "too much demand" (and it's always nice to hear that farmers are making money), but although there are a few incentives currently in place encouraging farmers to switch from traditional farming to organic, the conversion process is long and daunting and more help is needed. Industry leaders are, however, continuing to work with local and federal governments to see what else can be done to help meet the ever-increasing demand.

I'm just hoping it starts bringing prices down. I try to buy organic when I can, but for certain organic items that cost three times as much, I sometimes end up swallowing pesticides instead and hoping for the best.
