I just heard at a meeting of Farm Without Harm, a group dedicated to
toxin-free farms, that Gallo Wines is the largest organic grower of grapes
now.

Gallo discovered, after using methyl bromide (amongst other toxins), that
grape vines left alone developed natural immunities and produced more than
when pesticides and herbicides were applied.

Good news for all of us seeking positive environmental action from
agriculture businesses.

Thanks, Sam, for posting the newsletter.
