ETA: BethM I am just curious do you feed your buns all organic? I would love to but the stores that are real close by don't carry enough organic greens for me to feed all organic and I can't go to Whole Foods 3 times a week.
Unfortunately, I don't feed the buns all organic. I'm with you, in that the Whole Foods is much farther away from me than other grocery stores. Plus, I just wouldn't be able to afford the amount of cilantro and parsley my bunnies go through, if I got organic.
I do try to keep their treats as healthy as possible, so their treats are dried fruit, and I avoid anything with added sugar or preservatives. Nick has a sensitive tummy, so I am very careful with his treats. It seems that the organic stuff is less likely to have those things. I'm still careful to read labels. (I'm very particular about what I eat, as well.)
I do end up at Whole Foods once a week, though, in my normal grocery rounds. I buy a locally produced milk, and it is actually cheaper at WF than at the other store in town that carries it. Enough cheaper that it is worth driving to get it! (Tofu, olive oil, and veggie burgers are cheaper there, too!) While I am there, I do get their organic dandelion greens, Amelia loves them, so I try to provide them every day. Sometimes I will also get their organic carrots, if the tops are in good condition. I eat carrots every day, and my bunnies love the tops. I grocery shop on Saturdays, and I get enough to last a week, so I only need one trip per week.
So, I guess the short answer would have been.....Some of the buns' food is organic, some of it isn't.
