Organic Food In Ft Smith Area?
Hi,
we are thinking of moving to the Ft Smith area and looking for places to buy organic food. I have seen some of the specialty stores but was wondering if any of the supermarket / supermarket chains carry organic food, especially produce.
Thanks!

Harps on S. 74th st. is the only place I know of, they stay open 24/7 too.

Just look for the palest, most anemic looking people and follow them. I'm sure they will lead you to a "health" food store!

I've only been in a couple of health food stores but it seems to be true from what I've seen.

Really helpful, people. You just keep eating all those pesticides and GMOs.
The Fayetville area seems to have a lot of organic or at least natural practices. A lot of the farmers, if not strictly organic with all the paperwork required, don't use chem's, fertilizers, pesticides, etc, on plants, or hormones, etc, in their animals. If you look up Local Harvest / Farmers Markets / Family Farms / CSA / Organic Food or LocallyGrown.net — LocallyGrown.net you'll find a lot of producers in your area. I believe there are organic restaurants and grocery stores there too. Good luck and good health!

The stuff I eat from my garden is organic I guess.
Not everyone get's to pick and choose, a lot of people can't afford to eat organic exclusively.
Also Fayetteville having a lot of organic stuff doesn't really have anything to do with someone shopping in Fort Smith.
