LAKEWOOD, Colo., Sept. 5, 2024/PRNewswire/ -- Natural Grocers®, known as the nation's Organic Month Headquarters®, raises awareness towards Organic Month with discounts on organic products, community education and fundraising efforts, and much more. Customers can save big and learn more about the organic food movement, while trying new organic recipes, products and produce samples throughout the month of September.
WHY ORGANIC?
"We've been advocates of organic agriculture long before it was officially regulated by the USDA," said Raquel Isely, Vice President of Marketing at Natural Grocers. "Our original produce department was 100% organic, even though that little green and white seal wasn't yet a reality. By choosing to prioritize organic products as a retailer, we positively impact the way food in our nation is grown and raised. We avoid carrying products made with problematic ingredients or grown with a reliance on synthetic pesticides, fertilizers and growth hormones. This is how our company can help everyone live in health and support a thriving regenerative environment.
"The current organic system is a work in progress, but it's the most transparent verification of food quality and agricultural practices that we have available. The USDA organic seal provides traceability and accountability that conventional food production lacks. Natural Grocers proudly offers organic products for many reasons - Organic Month is a chance to showcase these products and the beneficial practices behind them. We invite our communities to join us for Organic Month to celebrate and of course, save big on premium-quality organic products with our Always AffordableSM Pricing."
