An article by Gene Logsdon (originally written in 1973). I’m sure if I had to cultivate gardens ten hours a day every day for someone else, I’d think of it as work. But the beauty of the organic homestead is that “work” is self-willed, not commanded from on high or dictated by economic necessity. “Work” becomes [...]

Organic foods may be becoming a victim of their own success. Production can no longer keep up with demand, and many are saying that the initial ideals of clean, natural and healthy produce have been sacrificed for profit.In Europe, many fruits, vegetables and honey must now be imported from places as far away as Turkey and Latin America. For many, the organic philosophy is a profession of faith in

From Sarah Manners, special to JeffsHealthyLiving.com The term, organic farming refers to an environmentally friendly and health-supportive method of farming and processing foods. Weeds and pests are controlled using environmentally sound practices that sustain our personal health and the health of our planet. The term “organic” applies to both animal and plant foods. The production of [...]

Farming practices used before the 1900's are classed as organic. It was only after this that added chemicals such as urea and DDT were brought into farming - previous to this, farmers didn't have the knowledge and simply put, were happy enough with things as they were; as most of us today would be. After all, home grown food is often the nicest, most tasty food we put on our plates.For some reason, during the 1960's and 1970's the concept of organic food became a separate entity to the 'normal' food we were then buying. Consumers had been effectively duped into believing that what they were buying, was food as nature intended, it not appreciating that the chemicals which were added during growth of the 'normal stuff' were what actually made the food abnormal in the first place.Rachel Carso

For healthy lifestyle and consciously attitude to the environment you need a healthy skin. Skin is the most important part of our body but is ignored most of the times. To maintain a healthy skin, organically grown food is must. Apart from organically grown food, organic skin products are also necessary. Organic Skin Care is the most rapidly developing field in the beauty industry. Now what does Organic mean? Organic refers to anything grown or raised naturally. It means plants grown on certified natural land without the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, genetic modification or irradiation. Organic Skin Care means protecting your skin from harmful chemicals and using organic products only. Organic skin, face, body or hair care products contain mostly organic, natural ingredients wi

Conventional agricultural practices, adopted in large part over the past 50 years, have stripped the minerals essential for healthy crops from the soil, necessitating the increasing use of artificial help to replace what has been lost. In fact, according to conservative estimates, seventeen insecticides, fumigants, and herbicides are currently being used in conventional wine grape [...]

There is some debate about how much Google uses the clickthough rate of the organic listings to affect where you are listed. However, with two recent examples for our clients giving demonstrable results, one dramatic and one less so, I certainly believe that the clickthrough rate is used for determining your position on a page.  In our dramatic example, a UK based holiday company gained a Google Local Map result attached to their listing. Unfortunately it was not their map listing, but some random hotel in the USA. As a result, they experienced a dramatic slide off of page 1 for the majority of their search terms over a period of 1 to 2 weeks. As nothing else had changed, the only explanation for this is that the US address put UK based searchers off clicking on their link. (Than

Compost is a great tool for any gardener. It helps your garden hold just the right amount of water, makes it the right texture for optimal plant growth, and provides it with beneficial natural organisms. While you can buy several different types of compost products at a retail store or gardening center, it's much cheaper to make your own compost. Not only will you save money, you also get the added benefit of knowing that you're not just throwing your yard waste away; it's actually doing something beneficial for your garden and for your health. Before getting started on building your compost pile, you should know what to put in it. To get good compost you need four elements: carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and water. Grass clippings from your yard provide the carbon. Nitrogen comes from leaves i

Building up sustainable soil for organic gardening starts right after the garden soil testing has been completed. The testing of the soil helps to identify the additional fertilizers and conditioners that can be added. When attempting to garden organically, testing, maintaining and improving the soil is a constant process and one that is well worth the effort, according to those who advocate organic farming and gardening. Creating sustainable soil for gardening organically means that you have to be able to replenish the topsoil of the garden. One of the best substances to have for keeping the soil rich and healthy enough for an organic garden is a good supply of compost. In addition to compost, it is good to have enzymes, earthworms, and beneficial microbes available to add into the soil

The Cornucopia Institute has filed a legal complaint with the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), demanding that the agency enforce the organic regulations prohibiting toxic solvents from being used in the production of organic food. The Institute found that baby formula and other food manufacturers are using hexane -- extracted omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (DHA/ARA) -- derived from algae and soil fungus. Through a Freedom of Information request at the FDA, Cornucopia also discovered that algal- and fungal-based DHA/ARA have been linked to serious side effects such as virulent diarrhea and vomiting in infants, many of whom required medical treatment and hospitalization. “The federal organic regulations very clearly prohibit these oils in organic foods, so this is not a case of comp

The government has weighed into the argument between the Co-op and the Soil Association.

It is widely believed in the search engine optimization community that the title tag is the most important on-page element for obtaining good search engine rankings. Despite this belief, it is amazing how many websites do not include title tags at all on their pages or use non-descriptive title tags such as YourDomain.com or just the word "Homepage". Although not thought to be as important, the meta description also plays in important role in obtaining organic traffic. Not surprisingly, many websites fail to include meta descriptions on many or all of their pages. Loading up the title tag on a web page with relevant keywords and phrases will help that page rank better in the search engine results pages when someone queries those words and phrases. It is also important to keep in mind tha

Instead of serving your children cereal for breakfast tomorrow, imagine pouring them a bowl of natural baby shampoo and encouraging them to slurp it up.Okay, you wouldn't actually do that. But these days, some companies are making kids hair care and skin products with such natural and safe ingredients, you really could eat them. And that makes sense. Here's a fact that many people aren't aware of:Up to 60% of what you put on your skin (and on your children's skin) is absorbed into the body.

I recently saw a statistic that more than 70% of the residents in the Los Angeles metropolitan area are renters. A high proportion of those renters live in condos and apartments. When we moved into our condo in Santa Monica, I thought that my dreams of raising our own organic fruits and vegetables were over because we didn't have a yard. I also struggled with the notion that it would take a lot of water to grow these fruits and vegetables and I wanted to be green. I didn't want to waste water, but then I realized that by growing our own fruits and vegetables, we will HELP the environment in the following ways:* growing plants and trees puts oxygen into the air which helps fight global warming* cutting out the necessity for a truck to deliver produce to the store to be purchased and consume

There are many SEO myths circulating on the Internet. These misconceptions are often crazy and while some are based on partial reality, others have spread due to the lack of being proved wrong. Here is an example: Let's assume you make a change to your website content. Maybe after a few days you notice that your Google ranking for a certain keyword has altered. Now, it would be natural for you to assume that your content change had led to change in ranking. However, it may not be true. Your ranking could have changed due to several reasons, and may have absolutely nothing to do with the changes made to the content. Of course, this action of mixing up the cause and effect is a common error on the part of new SEOs. Well, if it were limited to just their work, I wouldn't really mind it. Bu

Facing sky-high crop prices, some in the organic livestock business are beginning to look for organic grain growers willing to sign long-term contracts to supply feed. This kind of vertical integration, which is common in the conventional meat industry, runs counter to the independent spirit of many organic farmers. But tight supplies and the soaring cost of organic corn and soybeans may force changes. Organic products are one of the fastest-growing segments of the food industry. Sales of organic food totaled almost $17 billion in 2006, and production of the grain and soybeans needed for organic livestock has failed to keep up with the demand for milk and meat. Soybeans in particular are in extremely short supply. Organic soybeans were selling for more than $25 a bushel on average in the u

You're in a bit of a dilemma standing in front of the produce section of your local supermarket. In one hand, you're holding a conventionally grown Granny Smith apple. In your other hand, you have one that's been organically grown. Both apples are firm, shiny and green. Both provide vitamins and fiber, and both are free of fat, sodium and cholesterol.The conventionally grown apple costs less and is a proven family favorite. But the organic apple has a label that says "USDA Organic." Does that mean it's better? Safer? More nutritious? Several differences between organic and nonorganic foods exist.

1. A perfect taste...Many people buy organic food because they believe it tastes better than non-organic. This could be because organic fruit and vegetables tend to grow more slowly and have a lower water content, which may contribute to the fuller flavour some people experience. A poll in 2005 showed that quality and taste of food are important to more people than low prices. 2. It's healthy...On average, organic food contains higher levels of vitamin C and essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron and chromium as well as cancer-fighting antioxidants. Organic milk is naturally higher in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin E, vitamin A (beta carotene) and certain other antioxidants than non-organic milk. 3. No nasty additives...Only 32 of the 290 food additives approved for use across t

OK so now a days we are lucky enough to say that now a days we can pretty much import in any food we like. For example we can get strawberries anytime of the year now where as in the past this was not a luxury we had. Recently we are seeing a big rise in the purchasing of Organic foods… it is cool to be Organic! This is the message we are presented with in this current Eco Friendly Society. So my friends why Organic?The following definition of "organic" was passed by the NOSB at its April 1995 meeting in Orlando, FL."Organic agriculture is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and on management practices that restore, maintain and enhance ecological

What can I say? The entire class screwed up.I could tell you why, but it would be an excuse. Last week was the toughest week so far this semester, for me and for everybody else in my Organic Chemistry class. Tests, quizzes, homework assignments, papers, and presentations across all classes all landed in one week.Looking at the test, it was straight forward enough and probably easier than most others. Everyone bombed it. Out of 50 points, over half of the class got less than 25, everyone but two students got less than 30, one person got 31, and another got 40.Instead of curving the test for scores so low (for a class who wouldn't have learned a thing), the teacher made us re-take it open notes / open book. The workload that week was the reason everyone did bad. Me not sticking to my
