Default Re: Organic or Local?

For me, it would depend on the food. Chemical additives are bad, long distance transportation is bad and there is nutrient loss along the way, especially if the food is stored for a long time. Some local foods that are not certified organic may still meet many, or all, organic requirements. I'd do the research, and pick the best for my health, which includes overall environmental health. Tough choice.
