In light of tomorrow’s Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., there will be no commentary today. It will return as usual next Wednesday.
So, I’d like to take this moment to thank you — the many subscribers of Organic Insider — for reading our newsletters each week. We are incredibly grateful for your continued support and interest in our work.
And I would like to particularly express my gratitude to the many organic farmers throughout the world. Deciding to farm organically is not an easy endeavor, and the only reason we are able to eat organic every single day, including Thanksgiving, is because of this group of deeply committed individuals. Without them, there is no organic food.
Lastly, in case you missed our last few newsletters, which were done as a two-part series, below are the links.
