Top 50: Business

Why is the organic industry booming? 
      
    What should we be looking at when going to the grocery store? Is eating organically grown fruits and vegetables the key to sustaining health? What goes into growing organically? 

 These were some of the questions we covered in this special episode of Renewable Now with Peter Arpin and Co Host Seth Handy of Handy Law. 

 We got some interesting perspectives from two very important people in this field. In this show we spoke with John Kempf who is the founder and CEO of Advancing Eco Agriculture, a leading crop nutrition consulting company. 
John got his start growing up on a fruit and vegetable farm in Northeast Ohio and experienced first hand challenges faced by crop producers everywhere.

We also got a perspective from Steve Gilman who is the policy director of the North East organic Farming association. He is a former organic farmer and now happens to work with a number of organizations that advocate for organic farming. For more information feel free to visit nofa.org

 We learned that what is impacting the quality of our food is, 
the disintegration of our soils . We need to regenerate our soil and the minerals that are in it to grow healthier plants. We need to have a restored connection with the Earth. 
John Kempf of Advancing Eco Agriculture pointed out that he believed that the Organic farming industry will continue to grow 9%per year. He also stated that the United States is lagging behind in adopting biological and organic practices. 


Steve Gilman from the North East Organic Farming Association advised us about the major obstacles that are faced in Government in the organic farming industry. Steve also made a point that the industrial food industry feels threatened that locally organic farming is threatening its profit margin. 
One of the last points we looked at is how foods now are being prescribed to treat some medical conditions which goes along the phrase you are what you eat. 

Renewable Now takes away from this discussion that it’s better to eat foods that are fresher and locally grown as possible.
Local organic vs industrial produced food, listen to this show and decide for yourself.

Please enjoy this RNN’s Profiles in Health and Wellness featured guest Mike Conlon who is a Licensed Massage Therapist and Department Head of Anatomy and Physiology as well as the Sports Massage and Pathologies courses at the Bancroft School of Massage Therapy. Mike was an All American Gymnast in college and after graduation became involved in a family business for 15 years. He realized this career path wasn’t for him. Mike had a chance meeting with an old friend who informed him she was teaching massage, “a light bulb went off and I knew that was exactly where I was suppose to be.” The first discipline he practiced out of school was myofascial release and then orthopedic massage. Mike has an interest in anatomy and repetitive use injuries so orthopedic massage “seemed like a natural fit for me.” His previous experience as an athlete as well as his professional expertise made sports massage an easy segue. Mike’s goal was to educate the athletes he worked with about the benefits of massage; preventing injuries, improving performance and maintaining soft tissue health. “It’s definitely my passion.”
