When Organic growing techniques were first espoused they were considered irrelevant. Today consumers' attitudes and their consumption patterns have changed this opinion dramatically. Nowadays food experts, nutritionists, restaurateurs and lifestyle gurus all endorse the consumption of organic food - and the reduction of farming's and the food processing industry's carbon footprints.
Today, everyone advocates go organic: grow organic.
In the 1990's help was definitely needed to reduce the use of pesticides; limit intensive farming; protect our wildlife and sustain the eco-balance in the countryside. The whole organic ethos has proved something of a long-term goal for farming rather than an ephemeral fad with consumers.
At RB Organic we could see that market forces in the early part of the 21st century were reflecting a major consumer movement towards the purchasing of organic good. Supermarkets too identified this burgeoning trend and were seeking our support to meet this growing demand.
