Sales of Organic Foods Still Growing

July 25, 2009 by Steph 

organic food salesA recent article on Time.com shared listed 10 Big Recession Surprises. To my delight, surprise #3 was Organic Food Sales Remain Strong.

Over the past few years, I’ve felt that people’s attitudes about food are shifting. Once the recession hit, I read article after article that predicted the economic changes would stop that change in its tracks. At the same time, the waiting list for our CSA was growing and more of our friends started their own gardens. Maybe we live in a bubble, I thought. Maybe it is because we hang out with so many parents of young children, I hypothesized.

So, when I read the article above, I literally pumped my fists in the air when I read that the sales of organic foods are not just holding steady as families wrestle with their finances but they are growing! Hip hip hurray!
