Where to buy organic food?

By Karol Wariala

Sent by: Honey Dressing. Although most people have got used to buying most organic products from the hypermarket, one can always turn to an organic food store and find a wider and more comprehensive range of products. The truth is that such stores provide supplies and services locally, targeting customers in a limited geographical area. The advantages of purchasing products from an organic food store is that there is usually a family farm or a local food supplier that backs the store and provides fresh merchandise all the time. Plus, customers have the option of ordering products when they are no available, with the mention that there may be packaging and transportation fees.

Presently, you can search for an organic food store on the Internet; there are web sites that provide state maps with all the organic food stores and restaurants nearest to the customer. Then you can take your pick! Moreover, anyone can submit information about a certain facility in such directories providing contact details and directions to get to the facility.

The organic food store has a very productive counterpart in the farmers market, where they sell the same kind of food: natural, clean products that are free of chemicals, and therefore very healthy.

Fruits and vegetables are the main choices one makes when shopping at an organic food store. The idea here is to buy stuff that is produced or grown locally. The preference for this kind of small or family business contributes to local economic development and regional prosperity.

Thus, not only will you enjoy good tasty and healthy food, but you'll also support the efforts of striving farms to keep up with the market demands. There are many ways to advertise for such products. And here we should count the Community Supported Agriculture, U-Pick Up farms and farm stands that function well in the system.

Dairy products, eggs and meat are more difficult to find in a regular organic food store, but this is not impossible. Lots of farmers provide the community with fresh products through the intermediary of such shops. And this makes a really great alternative to the food supplied by the industrial farms where all antibiotics and hormones are used to produce eggs and grow livestock. Fortunately, the increased awareness about the dangers of non-organic food, has led consumers to favor an organic food store over a supermarket. - 17273
