He’s very well versed in the going organic lifestyle and is great at helping people get their feet wet into a more natural way of eating.

Well, I’m very pleased to say he has agreed but not only has he agreed he has also said he would write a ten part guide on the benefits of organic food.

Please check out this introduction to the benefits of organic food and bookmark this site for the future installments, which will be published over the next ten weeks; beginning this coming Wednesday, the 26th September.

He will be here for the next little while sharing great advice and tidbits on the benefits of organic food , so I’ll let him introduce himself…

If you’ve ever thought about going organic and living the organic green lifestyle you’ve probably had a few questions on your mind.

What does going organic really mean? How can it benefit you? And can it really be done on a budget?

Tools of the Trade

Hi, I’m Joe. I’ve been studying organic living as a way of life since the USDA introduced national standards in 2002 and my family has had the benefits of organic food since about 2006.

This subject means a lot to me because I want my family to have the healthiest meals possible.  A few other related subjects that I feel are important are our nation’s health, our wildlife and the sustainability of food production.

Even though certified organics have been around for a decade, I know there are still a lot of questions surrounding organic food.

That’s why I am so happy to be here to talk about many of those concerns people have.

Here’s what you can expect in the next few posts:

Do you need supplements?

We’re going to cover a lot, but remember, as you start consider the organic lifestyle and the benefits of eating organic food.

You don’t have to do this all at once. Just take it one step at a time adding healthier options slowly and keeping this great earth of ours in harmony.
