Organic foods are grown without pesticides, chemical fertilizers and genetically altered seeds. It takes a few years to prepare soil to produce quality organic crops and get certified organic. This is were most of the extra cost comes from plus natural composting, natural pesticides and applying them is more expensive than chemical fertilizers If you are very sensitive, as in allergic, they are a godsend.
