The rise of the organic food industry

The organic food industry is growing rapidly and there is good reason for this.  Many people are concerned about the use of pesticides that are being used on conventionally grown food crops.  There is a realization that heavy pesticide use has depleted soil nutrients and also the food grown in that soil.  In an effort to eat more nutritious food that has not been heavily sprayed, people are turning more and more to organically produced foods.
