MM said that organically grown straw may not exist in RI... probably have to be purchased out of state. He said if it's for mulch, organic certification may not require that mulch be organically grown and in the process of breaking down, any chemicals would be processed by insects, etc. He suggested salt marsh hay as an alternative, but he said it was big $$$. However, for small quantities it may be the best alternative. I have a name and number for salt marsh hay if that would be of interest.
