Awareness of the dangers of chemicals that may find its way to what we eat and drink has made people look for alternatives. It is no surprise that more coffee shops are offering organic coffee. There are also more farmers getting into organic farming. Organic means growing a crop without the use of pesticides, insecticides, or herbicides.
