If the environment or a specific diet are a dogma to you; or if you believe that all that is wrong with the world can be blamed on capitalism rolex replica , governments, aliens from Alpha Centuri, Satan, or the boogeyman of your choosing; and that we should all live in the woods and eat nuts and berries, then this website is not going to appeal to you.

Most groups promoting an environmentally conscious lifestyle and in particular organically grown foods and products have either espoused a frugal, minimalist lifestyle, or required huge sums of disposable income to afford the products.

"The Organic Consumer" aims to bridge the gap by providing pragmatic information and sources of affordable, practical organic products and services to help these people move closer to their lifestyle goals!
