Yes, there are farms in suburban Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Washtenaw counties (as well as in other counties a bit farther away from Detroit).

Many organic farms do not need to treat their animals nearly as much as inorganic farms do. Since the organic farms keep their animals more spaced out and in cleaner living conditions, less animals get sick compared to the farms that pack in their animals. They are like people, when we are living normal lives we rarely need antibiotics, but when you pack a bunch of people together and make them sleep where there urinate and other things, they will get sick a lot faster and more often.
There are many arguments both on the "for" and "against" side of whether their should be more organic farms. The main "for" argument is the "depletion of the environment, overuse of pesticides/fertilizers and loss of natural habitat for wildlife through intensive farming". There is also the "cruelty to animals farmed through intensive farming methods" argument. The main "against" argument is that "it is not possible to feed the world's population through organic farming methods, because organic farming yields much less than conventional farming methods". Personally, I think there is a happy middle-ground to be found. Also, many farms are "organic" in all but name, due to various issues associated with being certified as organic.
