Natural Grocers Commemorates Organic Month With Fundraiser

Natural

Lakewood, Colorado-based Natural Grocers is honoring Organic Month with a fundraiser for Beyond Pesticides throughout September.

Customers can join Natural Grocers in contributing to Beyond Pesticides’ mission of creating synthetic pesticide-free local parks and playing fields.

Customers will have an opportunity to support the retailer’s goal of raising $100,000 for the organization with donations at the register and a portion of proceeds from the sales of themed reusable shopping bags. Additionally, Natural Grocers will focus its monthly community educational efforts, discounts, samples and giveaways.

“As we face existential health and environmental threats from fossil fuel-based pesticides and fertilizers, organic food production and land management provide a real solution,” said Jay Feldman, executive director of Beyond Pesticides.

“Our partnership with Natural Grocers during Organic Month and year-round is powerful in advancing needed change because organic supporters play a critical role through organic purchasing decisions and support of community efforts to manage parks and playing fields organically. This contributes to safer food production and healthier communities, while protecting our air, land, water, biodiversity and fighting the climate crisis. Though we’re active in our advocacy efforts year-round, we place special emphasis on Organic Month, to recognize and praise our organic supporters.”

Natural Grocers aims to raise $100,000 in September for the Organic Parks Project with Beyond Pesticides with the following in-store fundraising opportunities:  

  • Natural Grocers will donate $1.00 to Beyond Pesticides for every limited-edition Organic Month reusable shopping bag sold (retail $1.99).
  • For every Ladybug Zip Pouch sold (retail $2.99), Natural Grocers will donate $2 to Beyond Pesticides. 
  • Customers will have the opportunity to make contributions to Beyond Pesticides ($1, $5 or $10) upon checkout at any one of Natural Grocers’ 163 store locations nationwide.

Natural Grocers will offer savings from Sept. 9-30 on products that reflect Natural Grocers’ commitment to organic practices. The first 200 shoppers at each store on Sept. 15 will receive a free sample size packet of Natural Grocers Brand Product Organic Coffee.

{N}power members will also receive a $5 off reward with in-store purchase of $67 or more in one transaction, a free Organic Month reusable shopping bag with any purchase and will receive 15 percent off in-store alcohol purchases.
