- Local and Organic Food and Farming: The Gold Standard – Chemical farmers say local is better than buying organic but we agree with OCA – raise your standards and buy local AND organic!

How can you take action? Well, first, buying all your cheese from Urban Acres will help our amazing local artisans not to mention provide you with the healthiest cheeses. Second, tell Kraft what you think as well as Kellogg’s, who admitted to using genetically engineered ingredients as well.
