On Monday’s Living Maxwell Show on Periscope, I did something that I had never done before — I announced my Top 5 Organic Product Awards “live” from the Fancy Food Show 2015 in NYC.

This was the first time that I have ever announced my Top 5 Awards “live” from this or any other trade show, and it was so much fun. Expect this to be the norm for all future shows. Read more »

After Natural Products Expo West and Natural Products Expo East, I give my award for the best trade show booths.

Some companies put a tremendous amount of effort and resources into their booths, and I like to recognize the brands that go the extra mile in this area. To me, it speaks volumes about what kind of a company they are.

With major food and chemical companies spending millions and millions of dollars to defeat GMO-labeling efforts in this country, my friend Vani Hari and I have decided to take action.

Just as we did two years ago for Prop 37 in California and last year for I-522 in Washington, the two of us will be throwing a fundraiser for Oregon and Colorado, two states that will be voting on GMO-labeling in the next few months. Read more »
