Organic food is fast-becoming one of the largest growth areas in the UK with £1billion spent per year now in organic produce. Organic box schemes are overtaking supermarkets in sales of vegetables in the uk.
Organic food is not only the future, also in the past, the food was by definition organic! So you can’t call normal food normal, because it isn’t! Its made using chemical fertilisers.
What about meat? Well, we managed to track down one of the first ever organic butchers, based in Perthshire, Scotland, Jamesfield Organic Centre, or better known as Jamesfield Farm rear their own animals in the traditional way which doesn’t use any artificial chemicals, preservatives or feeding them remains of other animals, which is re-assuring!
I’ve just found out that their website has just been updated and overhauled, they have special offers on at the moment but you have to be on the british mainland to order food from them, so sorry to the rest of the planet, you’re out of luck!

Alexa ratings for their website went up by 25% over the last 3 months whereas a lot of their competitors went down from 69 to even 100%, which is a good sign for them.
Ian Miller who runs the farm says that a lot of the supermarkets and even online competitors (not in the organic arena) are selling meat that is not fit for human consumption in the long-run, they cannot assure the customer of where their meat actually came from. Sausages made supposedly in the UK can contain meat from other countries!
Also, there is still a lot of animals being fed remains of other animals which is not good for anyone.
We will track down Ian Miller in the future for more information, but just at the moment, online ordering of organic produce is a big winner for Ian, as he can get to customers he wouldn’t ordinarily get to without a chain of shops.
