Why does organic vegetables cost so much money?? Well the answer is there are no short cuts as a farmer I plant, weed, water, and harvest all with out using petroleum based fertilzers or pesticides. That choice requires me to have a lot of hands on work in the field. But I offer my customers with confidence that those heirloom organic tomatoes will be the best you have ever eaten!
I feel that this is what more folks need to understand, the little farmer works hard for better ORGANIC produce. Grocery stores pay a small amount for organic veges and then add to the price. They buy in quantity so cheap for them but higher price to consumers. A dedicated small farmer you WILL get quality, which they should get asking price for because of their locality. You can't check out the store but you can see your local farmer. Great story on pesticides etc.......
