In the March 2 Issue of Time Magazine there is an article discussing the difference between "organic" foods and "local"foods. It gives the example of two apples, side by side, for sale in New York City. One labeled organic, grown in California and one labeled local, produced somewhere in New York State. It brings the publics attention to the fact that a product labeled "organic", yet has been flown or trucked from one end of the country to the other may not be better for the environment than one that has been produced right down the road with the use of pesticides.
