Seattle is distinguished by locals and non-locals alike as a
consciously progressive city. Proudly known for our attempts at being
both environmentally sound and earth friendly, these efforts are
realized in a number of ways throughout the city. We see it everyday
in the law books, and we see it in the shops just around the corner.
To that end, Seattle is one of the largest purveyors of
organic services.
Not familiar with the organic? Put into its
simplest form, organic foods are those grown without the use of
potentially harmful pesticides, food additives or growth hormones.
Particularly appealing to Seattle, organic farms have been shown to
produce less waste with less energy. They are generally smaller,
family-owned establishments. But the organic movement is not limited
to the food we eat.
It also affects other retail goods from the clothes we wear to what we buy to decorate our home.
So for all you interested Seattleites, the following is a list
of organically-minded stores and services available in your very own
city.
Remember to stay healthy Seattle and enjoy!
