Local vs. Organic | The Lexicon of Sustainability | PBS Food

What’s more important, that your food is organic or you know who and where it comes from? Two farmers, Edwin Marty of Alabama’s Jones Valley Urban Farm and Jay Martin of Provident Organic Farms in Bivalve, Maryland weigh in on local vs. organic and why a piece of paper may not insure you’re getting the best food available.

The Lexicon of Sustainability’s Know Your Food is a short film series that introduces consumers to key terms and principles that can help them make more informed decisions about the food they eat. Visit www.lexiconofsustainability.com to learn more.
