Tonight The Girl and I are going to check out In Organic We Trust. It is a documentary that explores exactly what it means for food to be organic. I know lots of people who cannot afford to buy organic–so I am super curious what direction the documentary is going to go. Hopefully, it will explain which organic choices are healthier and which aren’t worth the extra moolah.
Let me know what you think if you decide to watch it–or if you have already seen it.
Peace out Girl Scouts & have yourself a great weekend,

I know you are super busy and sleep about two hours a night as is so I shouldn’t ask for more of you but… Would you consider doing a review of some of the Friday night movies? Even if not all of them- perhaps once in a while if you really really like one? They always interest me but I’d love to know what you thought after watching them.
Thanks!!

I might have to watch this one, I wonder if it explores the industrialization of the term.

Even though I DO believe that organically grown produce is better for humans, and pretty much everyone knows ingesting the many trace chemicals on conventional produce isn’t great for your health, the jury is still out on the science of whether organic produce is actually more NUTRITIOUS for the human body. When we talk about the benefits of organic farming/gardening, we might want to focus more on the obvious and proven benefit to the soil and the diversity of insect and microbial life. Soil is simply healthier when it isn’t laden with chemical fertilizers and insecticides, which means it will grow more with less interference from humans (therefore lower growing costs). The water table is healthier, too, which means rivers, streams, and lakes are healthier, and the water that comes out of your tap is probably better for you. In that sense, ANY organic produce is worth the additional moolah.
There are so many proven scientific benefits of going organic that I don’t think we need to argue – yet! – about whether organic produce definitely has more vitamins and minerals than conventionally grown stuff. Anyway, thanks for the tip about the documentary, Mavis – will put it on my watch list!
