Another reason to eat organic -- childhood pesticide exposure is associated with the early onset of puberty.

According to a research study out of Spain, which was recently published in Environmental Pollution, children with higher levels of certain pesticide metabolites are more likely to go through early puberty.

Don't believe the propaganda that organic doesn't matter and that what is most important is that kids eat their fruits and vegetables.

What is most important is that kids are not exposed to these dangerous chemicals through the food they eat.

Thanks to @beyondpesticides for the information.

Great news!

It appears that Mexico will NOT be succumbing to the pressure from U.S. officials and the GMO lobbyists, and that the GMO corn ban will proceed.

THANK YOU, Mexico! 🙏

Today's picks from the farmers market....and my dinner tonight.

Everything was purchased from @assawagafarm -- a hand-powered, no-till organic vegetable farm specializing in Japanese varieties.

These farmers blow my mind with the quality of organic produce that they grow. This picture does not do it justice. 🙏

Looking for an awesome organic, plant-based restaurant and juice bar in Philadelphia for Expo East?

If so, definitely stop by @psandco. I went for lunch today and had the BBQ tempeh caesar salad. It was outstanding.

Also, I was fortunate enough to run into the owner this afternoon, Andrea Kyan, and she is the real deal. SUPER-committed to organic. These are the type of people that we need to support.

Thank you, Andrea, and I will be back very soon!

(Please tag anyone you know going to Expo East that eats organic and may be looking for such a place.) 🙏

This sign should say "Please keep all pets -- AND HUMANS -- off the grass."

Agree????

Let's hope one day that signs like this are no longer needed -- because glyphosate and these poisonous chemicals will no longer be allowed. Anywhere.

HUGE VICTORY! 🙌🙌🙌🙌

In its completely flawed GMO labeling rule, the USDA allowed QR codes to be used instead of easy, on-packaging labels.

Center for Food Safety and others sued the USDA, and a U.S. District Court just ruled that the QR code was unlawful and that USDA must instead add additional disclosure options to GMO foods.

"This is a victory for all Americans," said Meredith Stevenson, Center for Food Safety staff attorney and counsel in the case. "Today's decision marks a key step toward ending the food industry's deceptive and discriminatory GMO food labeling practices, which have kept consumers in the dark by concealing what's in their products."

Today is a massive win for consumers! 🙏

GMOs have been an utter failure and nothing but broken promises.

Why politicians think it will be any different this time around with gene-editing -- GMO 2.0 -- is beyond me.

If we really want to heal our planet, it will not be done with patent-protected technologies and super-toxic chemicals.

It will be done with regenerative organic agriculture.

Because there is no Planet B, everything we do -- how we farm, how we shop, how we eat -- must take this into consideration.

Apparently, the GMO and chemical companies never got this message.

How is it that a company with recent and documented human rights violations -- including child labor, wage theft and abuse of factory workers --can get B Corp certified? (@bcorpuscan @bcorporation @bcorpuk @bcorppoland)

Dr. Bronner's, Lotus Foods, Grove Collaborative, Peace Coffee and dozens of other companies have signed a letter, asking for change.

In my 12+ years of writing about the organic industry, this was the most disturbing piece that I have written, and the video footage of the child workers in Guatemala is absolutely heartbreaking.

The full story is in this week's Organic Insider.
