Non-GMO, Organic Food Distributor Azure Standard HQ Just Went Up in Smoke

• Organic Prepper - Aden Tate

Another day, another "food fire."

We've already witnessed the burning of the Yakima, Washington fertilizer plant. Then there was the burning of the fertilizer plant in North Carolina. A mysterious bird disease is allegedly spreading throughout the country (though the testing methods utilize the notoriously inaccurate PCR test). Fertilizer is no longer being shipped to the US from Russia. The breadbasket of Europe is in a state of war.

And now? Now, America's largest independent, non-GMO, organic food distributor's headquarters just went up in smoke. You may have heard of them – Azure Standard. We've covered this business before when the state of Oregon decided they were going threaten the organic farm with the spraying of Roundup all over their crops (due to an alleged Canadian thistle problem).

Azure Standard operates by means of drop-off locations throughout the country.

Patrons purchase their products online and then are able to pick up the food items at the nearest drop-off location near them. They sell a wide range of products from Roundup-free grains, meats, teas, baby foods, and more.

Just about any type of healthy food that one could want is offered for sale by Azure Standard. For those who are concerned with the additives or pesticides used with commercially processed foods, Azure Standard offers an easy solution. It's because of this that Azure Standards has become such a mainstay in the health-conscious American's diet.

They were influential in pointing out the dangers of GMO foods in the very early stages of the GMO conversation, as well as pointing out many of the consequences of increasing levels of pesticides being applied to the American food supply. Not only have they helped millions of Americans through the bringing to market of foods devoid of these alterations/additions, but they've also helped through spreading knowledge and awareness.

The headquarters facility has been deemed as a total loss.

There is  no verdict as of yet as to what the cause of the fire was, though an investigation is ongoing. There was no loss of life as a result of the fire either. According to Azure Standard's CEO, David Stetzler, the automated liquid pour facility, the fruit packing facility, and the carob products facility (it's a chocolate substitute) were all destroyed and/or damaged as a result of the fire.
