At Urban Organix our goal is to reduce our negative impact on the environment by taking steps toward self-sufficiency while optimizing the nutritional content of our foods. 

 

People the world over know that the key to a healthy existence is a healthy diet and that fresh produce plays a key role in any such healthy diet. Unfortunately, unless you are buying organic you run the risk of exposing yourself and your loved ones to toxic pesticides, chemical fertilizers, occasional outbreaks of disease(e coli, salmonella), genetically engineered foods(frankenfoods) and produce with depleted nutritional value due to the depleted soil they were grown in. This has driven many to spending a little extra to eliminate these possibilities. We applaud anyone supporting organic farmers and local agriculture.

 

Taking it one step further, we believe that by growing some of our own produce at home we cut down on the amount of fuel burned to bring the produce to market as well as chemical pesticide and fertilizer runoff released into our waterways while saving  money we would otherwise be spending on pricey organically-grown veggies.
