Welcome
to Organic in Nashville,
a
Comprehensive Site for
Everything
Organic, Green Local and Fair Trade in Nashville!
This site will always be
growing as we find
and
present new organic, green, vegan,
vegetarian and holistic resources as well
as Fair Trade, handcrafted & ethical gifts
and products in the greater Nashville area.
If you'd like to be on our
mailing list to be notified of new additions please visit our
Contact Page. We promise not
to spam you but instead to provide useful information that will
help you improve your life.
Our goal is to help others,
promote social justice and encourage green living and better
health. Our proceeds go toward helping the environment,
supporting farmers and helping free child slaves.
We search out and list vegan and
organic food, eco friendly products, ethical and fair trade
offerings, holistic and alternative medicine, places to exercise
that promote overall healthy living, spas, massage therapy
practitioners, nutritionists, organic farms, health food
stores...you name it, we'll find it and list it!
We list Farmers Markets in
the Nashville area and strongly suggest you visit the nearest one
(it's like a weekly street fair and strangers become friends over
delicious food.)
We'll help you locate organic farms and ranches; grass fed, hormone free beef;
free range chickens; organic meat; exceptional raw cheeses
and goat cheese; fresh baked breads, rolls; organic deserts
(including healthy raw organic dark
chocolate) and of course, organic vegetables galore!

what do the logos mean? |

Ever wonder what all
the various logos regarding USDA organic, certified naturally
grown and Fair Trade products really MEAN?
We've put together a quick and easy
guide to the various logos indicating organic and fair trade
products.
We also discuss the truth about what "organic" really means and
ways to protect yourself from the green washing frauds who just
want your green $$ and don't really care (or worse, put pretty
green pictures on toxic products!)
Do you know what greenwashing means? How about the dangers of high fructose
corn syrup? Come

It's a
philosophy of life. Healthy eating, exercise and an active spiritual
life have been proven to lead to a healthier mindset. Caring for
yourself and your loved ones -- and then spreading that attitude of concern to
humanity as a whole -- leads to social justice.
Social
justice such as supporting America's farmers so they don't lose their farms.
This means paying a fair price for fresh and local produce, meats & dairy
products. Buying local and organic is also healthier AND reduces
transportation costs which helps our planet (less pollution and less gas
used.)
In addition, shopping locally helps support OUR local economy (and many
of Nashville's local farmers are feeding the poor with their excess food so
they're further contributing to the well being of the people in the Nashville
community.)
Standing behind hardworking farmers in countries that produce goods we don't
grow in most states in the U.S. (like coffee, cocoa and bananas) and helping stop the unfair wages they're usually paid for
their hard labor.
Stopping human trafficking, both in America and overseas, (including the
practice of using children as labor slaves so that the world can enjoy "cheap
goods.")
Doing all we can to
heal a planet that is being damaged and systematically plundered and pillaged
in the name of greed and progress. We need to stop the global impact of
injustice and pollution that is affecting the entire world...it's wrong and we
should all care!
Fighting efforts by big business and nosy
government types who think they have the right to mess with our food...and
tell us what we can and cannot eat. We don't want genetically modified
organisms in our
food (GMOs) and we don't want anyone telling us we MUST! We're in a fight
for our future, our health and our rights. Gloves OFF...we're in the
battle!
The
butterfly effect is real...what is happening in other countries IS impacting
our lives here in United States (think about how the ash from a volcano spreads.) We like to think of the
"butterfly effect" in one more way...setting slaves free transforms their lives so they
BECOME beautiful and FREE to fly!
Our company is Whole Earth International and we
care. We have a belief that if you help save the people then you help
save the planet. People in developing nations don't often know about the
damage they're doing to the environment...or they don't feel like they have a
choice because they -- like every human being -- will do whatever it
takes to feed themselves and their children.
We can help them achieve a better living AND
steward their resources better. We can make it possible for children to
get an education and break the cycle of poverty. And the green and
organic lifestyle helps AMERICA too...better environment, better health and
green job opportunities.
Become an advocate for the health
and well being of Nashville, Middle
Tennessee
and the WHOLE EARTH!
Go organic, go green, buy Fair Trade and
care for your body, mind and spirit.
Love the people in your life and
love your neighbors.
Care for hurting people, animals and our
planet. It's a good
recipe for a good life!
