Why Organic?

Why Organic?
You cant wash it all off...
There are dozens of reasons to choose Certified Organic, but possibly the least known one is one of the most significant. Systemic pesticides. In short, they’re “bad to the bone” for plants and for you.

Maybe you’ve never heard of them, but systemic pesticides are just what they sound like. They're damaging pesticide chemicals that systemically invade plants—from the soil, to being absorbed into vegetation, traveling through the xylem and making their way into the leaves and flowers, where they can then infect pollen and nectar as well as anyone or anything consuming any part of these.
No amount of produce washing can remove these pesticides from your favourite fruit and vege!
Not just more delicious...
Organic food is better for the environment, helping to minimise unnecessary pollution caused by fertilisers and chemical pesticides. Promotes better health and is eco friendly. 
Lower the level of chemicals you consume...
Organic food contains higher level of antioxidants than non-organic (for real! study by British Journal of Nutrition) providing your family with greater protection from free radicals and harmful elements in your environment.
