Organic Produce and Canned Goods

I try to buy organic milk, eggs, produce, and meat products as often as I can. Sometimes I have to drive down town to our co-op in order to get some of these items, which can be time consuming and the traffic can drive me crazy.

Luckily, some of the supermarkets are beginning to provide an organic section in their stores. For instance, I have found some very good buys at the Fred Meyer store in our area. They have an organic produce section as well as boxed and canned items. I find they have some of the best prices available on organic canned goods when they are on sale. This includes the boxed soups, which I find to be quite tasty. I wait until they have a sale before I purchase items for storage.

I'm not sure which area of the country you live, but I believe Kroeger and Fred Meyer are owned by the same corporation. You may want to check it out. You can begin by purchasing a few items if you are on a budget and add them to your food storage program slowly until you can eventually replace some of your non-organic canned and boxed food items.
