I also buy organic when ever possible and am lucky that the supermarkets sell organic as well as local. I like that they also put the adress of the farmer on display.
I really would rather restrict on many other things, than the quality of food. Because I do believe that nurtrition is the foundation of our health and we should not be surprised if the body starts rebelling with health problems if we put stuff into it, that is either to difficult for it to metabolise or in such excess amounts, that the excretion organs can not get rid of it anymore.
Besides, if you have any tendency to 'live to eat', then you probably know about flavor. Anybody want to compare homegrown, or the better organic, foods to the petroleum-derived artificial-flavored cardboard that comes from Kraft?
Almost anything that I ate in France was worth the premium that I paid over the 'comparable' U.S. product. paul spencer

You will be welcome anytime. I can host you in Lyon. Just let me know sufficiently in advance. "Dieu se rit des hommes qui se plaignent des conséquences alors qu'ils en chérissent les causes" Jacques-Bénigne Bossuet
I'm food obsessed with a limited budget so I've put a fair amount of effort into figuring out where to buy.
Out of your way a bit, but I have a second cousin in southern NJ who is a full-scale organic farmer. You might be interested anyway - google "Neptune Farm". Their web-site has been "under construction" for months, but there are articles about the farm, including one about a series of wind turbine tests there. paul spencer
