On a recent trip to Price Chopper in Brattleboro, VT, our Savvy Organic Shopper found great prices on organic produce to get her new year off to a clean, healthy start. She found one pound of Earthbound Farm organic spring salad mix for $8.71 (the equivalent amount of conventional spring salad mix was $12.77), organic broccoli for $2.99 per pound (conventional was also $2.99 per pound), and organic celery for $2.99 per pound (conventional was $2.99 per pound as well). So, by choosing organic, our Savvy Organic Shopper was not only able to save money, but she was also able to buy products that were grown without the use of toxic pesticides and fertilizers. That’s a fresh start we can all benefit from this year!
