Here is a thread we already have on the subject.

It really is a personal choice. Some factors to consider when deciding are:

Are a lot of chemicals used in your area? Farmers markets are often a good place to find fresh produce that hasn’t been exposed to as many chemicals.

Are there good non organic choices available? Processed foods such as cookies & crackers tend to be full of chemicals - MSG, artificial flavorings & colorings etc, If I don’t have time to make these at home, I buy organic.

Milk & meat can be bad too. Again, I recommend looking into local regulations & farming practises. Some countries are better than others.

Personally, I pick & choose. If an item is not organic, but does not contain artificial ingrediants I will still buy it.

Here is a good link that I found:
