Organic Produce


Good morning all,
I was having a discussion with friends the other day about organic foods. It made me realize most people think that because it states being "organic" they feel it is safe to eat. It is when it is handled correctly. Organic means void of drugs, hormones, or synthetic chemicals. It doesn't mean they don't use fertilizers or pesticides, it indicates the use of strictly ones originating from animals or vegetables. The most common is manure. So when you shop at your local farmers market, be sure you wash your hands and produce before consuming them. Happy, happy week!
