Here are some of the tidbits we've covered on Growers & Grocers this week.
- Whole Foods worries about the plight of live soft-shell crabs but ignores the factory farm conditions at Horizon Organics.
- A stand of old American Chestnut trees put a smile on the faces of those who work to restore the decimated native population.
- You thought baked beans were convenience food? Try Britain's ready-made baked beans on toast.
- Commercial interests have decimated coral reefs and deep-sea fish stocks.
- Cool new food packaging techniques are coming to a store near you.
- Wal-Mart's going green in a big way, and even uber-liberal Mark Morford has to give them credit
- Grape farmers in the northern part of the U.S. (and into Canada) face a disastrous crop after surprise frosts.
