Why prioritize organically farmed products? There are several reasons to choose organic food: - Pesticides, fungicides and chemical fertilizers used in intensive farming have major consequences for people’s health, including the development of serious diseases such as cancer, leukaemia, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Organic farming follows strict specifications that prohibit synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. - Protecting the environment and biodiversity It is therefore important to prioritize organically farmed products in workplace and school canteens. And local products are even better!
