Organic Produce

Category : Food & Beverages

I understand that going organic can be expensive.  There are some things that are more important to purchase organically grown than others.  I try to buy everything organic but there are times when that is not possible so I must then decide between buying it conventionally grown or selecting a different item.  Produce with thin or no skins absorb more pesticides.

Fruit you should ALWAYS buy organic:
peaches, apples, nectarines, strawberries, grapes, cherries, pears
Veggies you should ALWAYS buy organic:
tomatoes, potatoes, sweet bell peppers, carrots, lettuce, celery
Conventionally Grown -
things I would be more willing to purchase non-organic if organic wasn’t available:
onions, avocados, corn, pineapple, mangos, asparagus, kiwi, papaya
