First, we always want to preface that all the produce in our boxes is ALWAYS 100% ORGANIC! However, we like to share this dirty dozen list each season so you can be aware when you’re out shopping, or want to inform your family and friends which produce is most important to buy organic!
The top of the Dirty Dozen list is always dominated by…. Strawberries, and sadly new this year- Blueberries have joined the list.
If you want to avoid pesticides and soil injected with poisonous gases, Environmental Working Group (EWG) advises always buying organically grown. This is why we offer you the safest option available.
As of April 2024, this is the most current list of the foods that are most important to buy organic to minimize pesticide/herbicide exposure.
THE DIRTY DOZEN are the 12 items below that are most important to always buy Organic*
*The Environmental Working Group puts an annual list together of these conventional items that are found to have the highest concentrations of pesticides and other synthetic residues.
