Love to shop, love indie designers and live in the Overland Park, Kansas area?  Well, check out Haute Market’s September 28th Fashion Roundup on Thursday night.  We sent in 80 of our Mint and Hemp Lip Balms for the event, so if you sign up early, you might just end up with one of our sample packs in your Swag bag of goodies.

You can still pick up tickets for the show by stopping by Jennylous….and if your’e not careful you might end up with a few more things from her great collection!

Everyone has probably seen the FDA notice about bagged spinach possibly having e.coli, and you’ve probably seen it removed from your local market.  Updated Info on 9/18 - find out more on the recall at http://www.vegetablegrowersnews.com/pages/news.php?ns=210 )

Did you know the US rice supply could to be contaminated with an illegal, gentically altered rice seed?  Japan has banned US rice imports and the countries of the EU are finding US imports contaminated. These are things that you don’t hear about on the regular evening news broadcast.  If you are interested in the subject, you can read the full article here at the Organic Consumers site.

If you want to read the Organic-bytes issue from Sept. 15th and see what you think, go to http://www.organicconsumers.org/2006/article_2399.cfm
