Chemical warfare: the horrific birth defects linked to tomato pesticides

-------------------------------------------

We sell tomatoes we grow without any pesticides or fertilizers or fungicides.
The cheap migrant labor exempt from minimum wage explains the low supermarket
prices we must compete with. Our only alternative is to compete on organic
heirloom quality and we get $5 lb.
