Kins. Also Farmer's Markets every where (and most of them start this week).

For groceries - Whole Foods in Vancouver, Roots in Maple Ridge (Organic World is right across the street from it too). Planet Organic in Poco's got a great selection but I think Roots has better Pricing.

For Meat - I don't know any in Van sorry but Meridian Meats (TriCities and Ridge) has VERY affordable free range and organic meat. And while it's a bit pricier, Hobcott's in Pitt Meadows is fantastic and all of their meat is organic, free range and local.

BUT you can't just eat organic for a week to see if you feel different. You're going to need to do it for a couple of months. The summer is a great time to do it though.

Also there's some items that are more "worth" going organic with. If you search online you should be able to find a good list of what's going to have the biggest impact on your diet.
