“What I admire so much about the Real Organic Project is that for so many years, so many people, including myself, have bemoaned the direction that organic has gone; the co-opting, the buying out, the dumbing down, but what do we do about it?” “But what you are doing is really exposing the truth, and I hope that you feel the value of your work. Not just for yourself, but for humanity and for organic farmers. You know, it’s a real blessing.”

“You have to build your own movement. And bring the change that you want to see with you. I think that’s what the Real Organic Project is doing, and has done. The vision, and the change, and the strength of the organic integrity of the label is represented in the Real Organic Project.”
“There has been a tremendous downward pressure on prices due to hydroponics, CAFOs, and fraudulent organic grain being imported. “Will there be any truly organic farmers left in this country after the NOSB and the government has had their way with us? I certainly hope that Real Organic Project can help turn things around.”

“What we got was more food on the shelves certified as organic, but we didn’t get more organic farming.”
“Real Organic is truthful agriculture. Food is where most lies have been told. Food and agriculture is where most violence has been perpetrated. But good farming, Real Organic, can be the place where we bring non violence back into the picture, and that non violence then brings truth back into the picture. And for me, Real Organic is farming with truth, for truth, for health, and for life.”
