Super exciting news – Zac has hooked up with an Organic Farming Operation in Belize that is recognized by the USDA/NOP as Certified Organic. Now we are able to get super fresh pesticide free veggies at a good price – this is huge.
Yesterday I got a good sized bag of organic mixed greens for $8 bzd and the date on the bag that they were packaged [and likely picked] was same day March 3, 2011 – does not get much fresher than that. I came home and proceeded to eat a huge bowl of salad while watching the new episode of Jersey Shore – total trash tv I know.

More exciting news tacoboy texted and he is on his way home right now with Wade the gringo burgers and fries from roadkill bar.
You are lucky Darryl. I feel like we just won the food lottery ha ha.
Hey Laurie, here in Austin we have Whole Foods, Central Market, and a bunch of small organic groceries so we sure have a lot more options than we did in Canada….and slightly better prices.

The price is fantastic and so is quality. I remember how much more expensive organic was in Canada.
This is great news, Taco Girl. I am such an advocate of eating clean and organic and it’s so awesome to see that you’re able to get this in Belize at a good price. Love it.

Thanks Laurie! Good to know…
I agree Incorporate Organic Farming hopefully more people will get in on that idea.

This is the best news I’ve heard in a long time! We’re not down there yet, but when we are, I hope it will still be possible to get in on this. We love organic greens!!!
Excellent. Love seeing anything organic, anywhere. It’s much better locally and globally!
