For those who missed it, according to today's Chron, Food section, the

Berkeley City Council has adopted guidelines encouraging every municipal

food program, from kids camps and senior centers to jails, to use organic,

locally grown food. Irradiated and genetically modified foods are

discouraged. The guidelines are motivated by concerns for health and social

justice. However, the policy does not require organic or locally grown

foods if they cost more than conventional alternatives. The policy could

take as long as ten years to fully implement.
