Post subject: Puxi Organic Produce Market - Every Sunday on DongPing Lu

______________________________________________________
Every Sunday 10:30AM - 1:00PM

#2 DongPing Lu (near Hengshan Rd, across the street from Simply Thai Restaurant)

Whether you already love organics for its many benefits or want genuine organic because you are concerned about your family’s safety and the quality if conventional food available in China, organically grown produce provides real, straightforward benefits. Organic is a choice to know HOW your food is grown, an opportunity to protect our air, water and land. Free of chemical pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) organic produce can contain the highest levels of important nutrients including essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. This is better, not just for you and your family, but for all of us.

Join us for our Sunday Organic Produce Market and choose from our just harvested vegetables, as well as a selection of our all organic gourmet dried beans, grains, rice and honey.

-------------------------------
Question: But can there be real organic in China?
Answer: Yes, there is organic certification in China.

Organics are the only government regulated and third-party inspected produce available in China. At Shanghai Organics we work hard to build trust and awareness of true organic farming and the organic certification in China. OFDC, the only internationally accredited Chinese organic certification body continually inspects and certifies our farm and facilities. Like many committed organic farmers around the world, Shanghai Organics operates to exceed even these international organic standards. More info at http://shorganic.com/e_certified.htm.

-------------------------------
Question: Why should I trust Shanghai Organics or the organic certification and labels in china?
Answer: We hear you!

This might be the most important part of organic farming in China, building trust in a market where false labels and claims are frequent and extremely confusing to consumers. As experts in organics, we know the best way to verify is to get to know the company, behind the brand. Contact us by any method, or come by and chat at any of our farmers markets. Shanghai Organics is committed to conversation, transparency, and bringing as many individuals as we can to our Songjiang Farm to inspect our farm and farming methods yourself.

I read somewhere the owner of O Store moved back home and the place shut down. Supermarkets here and quality of stuff suck vs. Singapore, HK and Tokyo let alone back home.
