LAKEWOOD, Colo., Sept. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Natural Grocers BB #:188775, known as the nation’s Organic Month Headquarters, raises awareness towards Organic Month with discounts on organic products, community educational efforts, and much more.

Customers can save money and learn more about the organic food movement, while trying new organic recipes, products and produce samples throughout the month of September.

For the 8th year as America’s Organic Headquarters, the company is raising dollars and awareness for Beyond Pesticides.

“Organic Month is one of our favorite celebrations of the year. It’s a chance for us to illuminate our commitment to Quality and our Always Affordable Pricing, two of Our Five Founding Principles,” said Raquel Isely, Vice President of Marketing for Natural Grocers.

“We only carry 100% USDA Certified Organic produce and every product that is on our shelves must go through a rigorous screening and approval process to make certain it adheres to our standards. We also work hard to secure the best possible pricing, as it’s important to us that everyone has access to quality organic and natural products. This helps communities thrive and helps our planet thrive, too. As the nation’s Organic Month Headquarters, we delight in educating our customers about organic food and products – what it really means to have this certification. And most of all, we love it when folks learn that buying and eating organic food can be affordable.”

ORGANIC EDUCATION

“What is organic?” and “Why choose organic” are two common questions we hear from consumers. Natural Grocers aims to answer these questions and more throughout the month of September.

Organic Month Facts from Natural Grocers – Here are some reasons why Natural Grocers believes supporting organic is better for human health, the environment and the economy.

“For the Love of Organics: Apeel™” – Organics are about transparency, about knowing exactly what goes into (and what doesn’t go into) the production of the foods we eat. This article reflects Natural Grocers’ concern over the product, Apeel, a post-harvest fungicide coating that has been approved for use on organic produce.

“The Dirty Dozen & Reclaiming Your Plates with Organic” – Each year, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) publishes a Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce™ after a thorough analysis of the USDA’s fruit and vegetable testing data. Learn more about this list and how to reclaim your plates and savor the goodness of nature, the way it was meant to be enjoyed: pesticide-free.
