Finding organic on the cheap

I came across an interesting blog called SustainLane, which helps consumers find ways for sustainable living. This article features some tips on saving money on organic food including:

• Buy natural, not packaged foods–this means get things in its original form, not processed through a factory
• Buy straight from the source, buy local and buy seasonal–go direct to farmers via CSAs (community supported agriculture such as Capay Farm’s Farm Fresh to You) or farmer’s markets (try the Alemany Farmer’s Market in San Francisco), and find produce in season and from the Bay Area
• Prioritize which organic produce to buy–such as buying berries over fruits with harder skin
• Eat lower on the food chain–such as vegetables and grains
