    Awesome! Peter,

    Glad to know you're an OCA supporter, too. As individuals, we have to keep on this issue and spread the word in order to protect the Organic Standards we have here in the USA - and to IMPROVE them! (Am I an optimist or what?)

    Neat you garden as well. My two supposedly dwarf fruit trees have shaded my now-not-so-sunny raised beds, so I can't grow the summer veggies I used to.....sigh. Enjoy your veggies!

    Peter,

    I will read the report you mention.


    I'm a supporting member of the excellent organization Organic Consumers Association and buy local & organic from our Farmers Market as much as possible, figuring my dollars are my most important vote and am happy to support those who do so for a living.

    Being an organic gardener, myself, I know how much goes into growing organically...and see in my own tiny properity what a difference it makes in this teeny part of the eco-system.

    We each get to choose our priorities and how we want to spend our dollars, where we still have a choice....

    A BIG THANKS! to Jill Richardson & Grist for posting this dismaying article about the sugar beets industry GMO take-over. I'm a committed "organic" sugar user, but to think of what health effects this will have on the unsuspecting or folks who can't afford to buy organic - and enviromental effects this will have for all of us is ALARMING.....to put it mildly.
