Consumers who are concerned about the origins of their food have turned to organic substitutes for their favorite foods. The problem with shopping for organic food is identifying which products are truly organic.My hubby always try to buy organic vegetables and fruits.So how can you tell if the food is organic?

It can be hard to tell, but just like the FDA approved stuff there is a symbol for the organics that you can look for. It means that they have approved it and passes the test. I forgot what it looks like b/c I know what products to buy now see if you can search for the organics approval or symbol. Hope this helps.

We have a farmers market right next door to us, and the foods are sold by the people who farm them. There are no middle people, no warehouses, no imports, all the food is produced on local farms, and sold to the local community. It's the only place we'll shop for meat, vegetables, eggs, cheese, milk, and other things.
