Why Organic?

Organic foods have a higher nutritional value than conventional food. By removing the use of pesticides and fertilizers, plants boost their production of the phytochemicals (vitamins and antioxidants) that strengthen their resistance to bugs and weeds. Organic farming reduces pollutants in groundwater creating a richer soil that aids plant growth. It also helps reduce the pesticides that can end up in YOUR drinking glass. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) performed an analysis finding some cities had pesticides in tap water at unsafe levels for weeks at a time. At Aguacate we are playing our part in making our food & water safer for our community. We hope to encourage others to practice & support safer eating practices the make the world a healthier place.
