Abstract
My aim in this paper is to support the thinking and actions of others in enabling organics to continue to develop in ways that will permit it to make increasingly significant contributions to sustainability and wellbeing. This will require us to emphasise higher values-based redesign/design initiatives over substitution and efficiency ones. Furthermore, we will need to understand that changes in our agriculture and food systems are intimately linked with those in both our institutions and within ourselves. Such transformation is part of the ongoing psychosocial co-evolution of our species from socialising to enabling cultures. This development may be regarded at a developmental progression from ‘shallow’ to ‘deep’ organics.
