A Great Thing!-Big Organic Garden-A Great Giveaway Too!

BIG ORGANIC GARDEN-A Great Thing!

For over a month now, my family has been enjoying organic fruits, vegetables, honey, and cheese.  We've subscribed to a program called Big Organic Garden. It has absolutely changed the way we eat.  Not only do we have fabulous fresh fruits and vegetables, we have a fantastic variety, they are affordable, and they are conveniently delivered to our house.

Here's some information about eating organic from the Environmental Working Group website:
“The growing consensus among scientists is that small doses of pesticides and other chemicals can cause lasting damage to human health, especially during fetal development and early childhood. Scientists now know enough about the long-term consequences of ingesting these powerful chemicals to advise that we minimize our consumption of pesticides.”

World-renown physician, Dr. Andrew Weil, and “America’s Pediatrician”, Dr. William Sears, also advise eating organic.

There are suggestions for fruits and vegetables that are most important to eat organically because of the high levels of pesticides used when they are grown nonorganically.  They are called the "dirty dozen". They include: grapes (imported), cherries, apples, strawberries, spinach, bell peppers, potatoes, celery, peaches, nectarines, kale/collard greens, and blueberries.

So why don’t more families eat organic? For many, it’s about cost. Big Organic Garden makes organics affordable. Each week, people across the Northeast Atlanta Suburbs enjoy certified organic produce, grown without synthetic chemicals and pesticides, as Mother Nature intended. Their program is flexible enough to fit any family’s needs, and their list of available products includes things like pastured chicken, pork and grass-fed beef, plus milk, yogurt, honey and more – all from local Georgia grown producers.

Big Organic Garden: Affordable. Convenient. Guaranteed

Big Organic Garden delivers to the following areas for $4.50:
Auburn, Buford, Dacula, Grayson, Lilburn, Lawrenceville, Loganville, Snellville, and some areas in Suwanee.  You can also pick up your order from Dacula, less than 15 minutes from downtown Lawrenceville.

So, do you want to give Big Organic Garden a try?  You can!  They are offering a giveaway for our followers.  2 of our followers will win a small box delivered to their home. That's a $24.50 value for each winner.  If you do not live in the delivery area and would like to pick up your box, you can and you will be credited an additional $4.50 to spend on "extras" Big Organic Garden has available that week.  Okay, so what about those of you that live WAY outside the delivery area... do you have a friend or family member that lives in the area?  You can win it for them!  Will you be visiting our area? You can get your box when you're here.  If none of these work for you, we're sorry; but, please, educate yourself about the importance of eating organic and consider giving it a try yourself.
