this video sums it up. need i say more?

"i have been crucified with Christ and i no longer live, but Christ lives in me. the life i now live in the body, i live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."

galatians 2:20

the do's and don't of organic

i have literally grown up eating organic...my mom was one of the few to shop at dallas' first whole foods with her hot pink bow and matching 90's sweatshirt + sweatpants outfit (picture that amidst their earthy, natural workers)

so i've heard a lot of "why do you eat organic?" well, cascadian farms provides a lovely list of the do's and don'ts of the foods that are grown organically.

Don't use synthetic pesticides, herbicides and soil fumigants.

Don't use genetic engineering

Don't use sewage sludge as fertilizer

Do improve the quality and fertility of the soil

Do protect water quality

Do reduce soil erosion

Do rely on natural biological systems for pest and weed control

Do reduce the impact of agriculture on our environment

Do produce high quality, great tasting food

"the earth is filled with your love, o LORD; teach me your decrees."

psalm 119:64

p.s. i think nature's path has got it goin' on in their section about eating organic
