This leads some to ask, “Will Wal-Mart wal-mart organics?” This Saturday at 9AM Pacific, the Food Chain with Michael Olson hosts Sam Fromartz, author of Organic, Inc., and Ronnie Cummins, Founder of the Organic Consumers Association, for a conversation about Wal-Mart’s entry into the organic foods industry. (Note: Wal-Mart declined to participate.) Log on www.metrofarm.com to listen on your radio, computer or IPOD. Topics include the short history of organic food; the industrialization of the organic industry; and why some warn that Wal-Mart’s entry into the organic industry could lead to the demise of organic standards. Question of the Week: Will Wal-Mart wal-mart organics? "Get off your ass and take your government back." ~Rocky Ward Want to be your own boss? Learn how on Small Business.
