Organic Summer Produce Shopping Guide
Whenever possible we recommend choosing certified organic. Organic is the most heavily regulated food certification in the U.S. Only the organic seal guarantees no toxic persistent pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, or GMOs are used in production.
Our allies at EWG have an updated 2022 Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™ to help you navigate away from the dirty dozen and towards the clean fifteen when organic is not available. When you buy organic food, textiles, and household products, you protect your family from 700+ chemicals used in conventional farming and manufacturing.
