Join a Growing Movement!

The fact is, over 50% of British Columbians now buy organic food some or all of the time. A 2003 opinion survey commissioned from Synovate Research for the COABC showed that 53% of British Columbians now purchase organic food at least occasionally. The majority of organic shoppers purchase their organic foods at mainstream grocery stores, although farmer’s markets and other direct-to-consumer sales continue to be important sources for regular and frequent organic consumers. Nationally, Agriculture Canada estimates organic retail sales will grow by 20% a year.

This is amazing to me I wouldnt have guess that the percentage was actually that high, even if its occassionally, that means people are making a change!! Good for us, Say NO to Pesticides and GM food!
