["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

Makes a lot of sense to me. We were certified organic for 14 years and the 
price for certification went up year after year but our income didn't. We 
could see the time coming that we would need to borrow money to pay for 
certification. The paperwork involved also was no longer doable. That took 
about a month's work for a person every year.
I know better than most the dangers of using unatural chemical ways and we 
eat our own produce after all. So of course we grow natural.

John, no longer certified
