As a farmer in Jarabacoa once told me, 'The farmers use pesticides like Dominican women use Sopita.' There are very few that do not use chemicals, very very few.....

If you're up for a trip to Santo Domingo, you might have better luck finding organic food there. PriceSmart could be a good place to start, they might have some USDA Organic items. Another option is to check out "La Sirena" and "Supermercados Nacional" in Santo Domingo, they often have a decent selection of organic products. When it comes to local options, it's important to make sure they can be trusted. You can try asking locals for recommendations or look for farmers' markets where you might find some organic goodies. For your everyday staples like eggs, milk, cheese, pasta, rice, beans, and veggies, these stores should have you covered. And if you're feeling adventurous, why not try some beet juice powder? It's a fun and nutritious addition to your diet. If you happen to discover any other stores or websites that offer organic products, please share them with us.

Does anyone actually trust that something for sale in the DR that is labelled organic is "organic"?
