That's the message of this year's Soil Association Organic Fortnight - Love Your Planet, Choose Organic.
For the next two weeks, individuals, businesses and communities will be hosting events to raise awareness of the environmental, health and social benefits of organic production. So look out for any local events you can join in - whether it's organic tastings, trying your hand at organic gardening or celebrating the benefits of
organic skin and body care.
Organic fact for the day: Organic production it is beneficial for the planet, because on average UK organic farming uses 26% less energy per tonne of food produced. This is mainly due to the non-use of fertilisers, which are the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in agriculture and the single largest source of nitrous oxide emissions in the world.
So choose the planet-friendly option, and go organic! And don't forget to visit us at
