Several things about that company, and my store have been irking me recently, but it's just so hard to change old habits (and they do have the most organic produce around at this time of year).<br />This post, and the article were "the final nail in the coffin". <br />So, thank you muchly!<br />MelanieMelaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08321634357908771759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936976925449679441.post-45583738484855313382009-12-22T12:10:56.192-04:002009-12-22T12:10:56.192-04:00It is disheartening isn't it?

It isn't just Alberta or Canada though is it? I read a post in a blog from a guy in NYC who was going on and on about how stupid people are for paying more for an organic carrot at a farmers market. N. Americans don't understand that good food is one of the true pleasures in life. It'll come around eventually...probably in the form of some sort of catastrophe though.goldforestfarms.blogspot.cahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03000577922412768699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936976925449679441.post-19045871021081459382009-12-18T09:14:19.913-04:002009-12-18T09:14:19.913-04:00You would have thought with the bridge being shut ...You would have thought with the bridge being shut down for two days and empty shelves appearing in stores across PEI that people would /wake up a bit/ and realise how important our farmers are to us.<br /><br />I share your grief for the anti-farmer comments. I would have hoped that here, of all places, people would still have (and want) a connection to their food and understand how difficult it is to produce.
