About the Author
Diana Richards has been studying organic living since the USDA introduced national standards in 2002 and her family has been eating fully organic since about 2006. She made this decision because she wanted them to eat the healthiest meals possible.
Organic eating is also important to her because it is linked to other key issues we are facing in the United States, and globally, including healthcare, wildlife, pollution, and sustainability.
