Pesticide-free, non-genetically modified food is a big, global business now. But, ironically, small farmers are getting the shaft.

I applaude the job the gentleman is doing , but doesn't it defeat the purpose of sustainable produce. I mean when you have to use up fossil fuel to ship tomatoes from california, wouldn't you just buy from a local farmer(organic or not). I would, even though I like whole foods.
