Cost seems to be one of the major factors that gets in the way of making the switch to organic. I was at the grocery store yesterday and there was an organic yogurt for .99 and then the non-organics were like .50. I think it is often hard to focus on sustainable living and eating when so many people don't even have access to basic food and water. This Sunday, the CROP Hunger Walk will be held on the Bill-Chipman Trail at 1:30 to raise money for local food banks. About 25 percent of all donations will go to Moscow Food Band and another 25 percent will go to Pullman Child Welfare's Food Bank. So if don't have plans this weekend, grab some friends, your tennis shoes and take some time to spread a little love and help fill the empty bellies in your community.
