Organic is a lifestyle choice

GOING organic is more than a trend, it’s a lifestyle choice and Bio Shop Noosa’s Uwe Wullfen shares his top five reasons to make the switch.
1. Organic products meet stringent standards. Organic certification provides assurance products have been grown and handled according to strict procedures without any toxic chemical inputs.
2. Organic production reduces health risks. Organic agriculture is one way to prevent nasty chemicals from getting into the air, earth and water that sustain us.
3. Organic producers strive to preserve diversity. The loss of a large variety of species (biodiversity) is one of the most pressing environmental concerns. The good news is that many organic farmers and gardeners have been collecting and preserving seeds, and growing unusual varieties for decades – try something that looks a little different. You might just like it!4. Organic farming helps keep rural communities alive. Healthy Organic agriculture can be a lifeline for small farms providing an alternative market where sellers can command fair and decent prices for crops.
5. Organic food tastes great! It’s common sense; well-balanced soils produce strong, healthy plants that become nourishing food for people and animals. Organic food tastes the best!
Discover the best organic produce around at Bio Shop Noosa located in Belmondos, Rene Street, Noosaville.
