-- Eating organic is not only beneficial to your health, but it is beneficial to the environment as well. At Go Organic ME, we aim to bring you the best available organically-grown products and feel that everyone should be aware of why organic is the way to go.

Here are some key facts you should be aware of when selecting produce:

  • Conventional produce contains harmful chemicals.

  • Conventionally-grown fruits and vegetables are covered in a stew of toxic chemicals.
    Even after rinsing that conventionally-grown pear, there will still be up to 50 
    poisonous chemicals engrained beneath skin. 
    Let's antagonize for a bit.....so what if there are chemicals in the fruit? 
    That doesn’t mean our bodies actually absorb it....you can get where
    I’m going with this one, right?And it turns out ourkids get it worst! Us 
    grownups can be full of toxins and not be quite as affected (still affected) 
    as a growing kid.
    There are so many studies on the harmful effects of pesticides.
  • It's just plain healthier.



    Organic fruits and vegetables are grown in nutrient-rich soil. 
    Vitamins and minerals are kept intact instead of being depleted, 
    as in conventional produce. Studies prove organic produce is more nutritious
  • What's better for the earth is better for you.



    Toxic chemicals are not doing anyone any good, including Mother Earth.
     While organic farms rely on natural biological systems and actually improve the 
    quality of the soil, chemicals on conventional farms are zapping
     the soil of any nutrients, deadening the earth.
  • We need to create sustainability.



    DEADENING it! Doesn't that word scare anyone else? 
    Supporting organic produce is supporting sustainable, healthy environments 
    that are thriving and full of life, replenishing the earth with nutrients, 
    and continually growing vitamin-rich fruits and veggies.
  • Environmental conditions are suffering.



    By using toxic chemicals and sewage sludge on conventional farms, 
    the falling of dominoes is in full effect; these chemicals get into not only
     the land (yes-deadening it), but the air and water as well, including groundwater,
     rivers, lakes and oceans, harming humans and wildlife alike.
  • It tastes better, too.



    Believe it or not, deadening earth does not create the best-tasting peach.
    Healthy soil creates strong, healthy plants with full juice and flavor. Mmmm.
