Description
The reason organic food only occupies 5% market share despite being so delicious and sustainable must be because of the preachy and argumentative narrative surrounding it. Today we speak to Dennis Weaver about the work he has been doing to introduce the mainstream consumer to the fun side of organic. Dennis is the Founder of Change Your Food, Change Your Life, Organic. Eat me., and the Co-Founder of The Organic Marketing Association. He has spent his life as an ambassador to the organic good food movement, but rather than using lectures or science, he simply puts a smile next to the word organic.
