Looking for that all-organic vacation?

Scottsdale, Arizona now boasts the first all-organic resort in the United States. With an organic menu, cooking class and produce already available, The Boulders Resort & Golden Door Spa recently began its transformation into an all-organic resort. The resort will soon begin implementing large-scale gardens on the grounds that will produce a variety of produce, herbs and spices for the resort’s kitchens and provide an organic in-room dining menu to guests. Currently, resort guests and local residents can enjoy Scottsdale’s first all natural farmers market at the resort’s festival marketplace, el Pedregal. On Friday evenings from 4 to 7 p.m., the el Pedregal Fresh Marketplace exclusively features seasonal produce from local farmers that is either certified organic, non-certified organic in practice, Natural GrownTM or pesticide free.
