Dear all,

I would like to ask a question about organic food availability. I am looking for a place where I can buy organic products. After doing some research I found that there is an organic farmers market once a week at a place called Upper Hill Springs. Furthermore, I found one natural food store (Healthy U) but cant´t belive that there is only one store for organic products. Can anyone of you recommend another store, farmers market where one can buy organic products?

kind regards,
Paddy

Dear Benson,

I think I expressed myself unclearly. I am looking for locally produced organic food items, those I can´t find in common supermarkets very often.
Nevertheless thank you very much for your quick reply

kind regards
Paddy

Anything specific in mind?

One thing to note is that the word "organic" is meaningless here. .

There are no laws on marketing food as "organic". That means if you want to be sure that your local food is 100% organic you have to plant it and harvest it yourself.

Or stick to food imported from countries that have "organic" laws.
